so today we’re gonna talk about the

connection between allergies and

something going wrong in your stomach

but it has to do with losing the acidity

of the acid in your stomach

normally the pH in the stomach should be

between 1 and 3 that’s extremely acid in

fact it’s a million times more acid than

your blood and the purpose of this acid

is number one to help you digest protein

and by the way to have a true allergy

there must be a protein involved and

when you have undigested protein that

goes down into the digestive system and

if you have at the same time leaky gut

it goes right in and your immune system

starts tagging it in appropriately and

creating a hypersensitivity creating

analogy number two it the acid helps

sterilize microbes okay I’m talking

viruses bacteria yeast fungus Candida so

if you’re consuming some of these

microbes in the food that you’re eating

they should be dealt with at the stomach

level and not allowed to go deeper

through the system where they can create

all sorts of problems all right number

three it helps you absorb minerals and

we need minerals for so many different

chemical reactions in the body but if

you can’t absorb calcium magnesium

selenium zinc copper iron your immune

system will suffer and that alone can

increase the susceptibility to getting

allergies and even asthma so if you

really look up the data on low stomach

acids one of the terms you’re gonna run

up against is called hypo chloride riah

okay and you’re gonna see a bunch of

symptoms that can occur from having low

stomach acids one is gas indigestion

burping bloating and right here

allergies okay cause effect a deficiency

of b12 increase Candida and then we have

some a condition called SIBO small

intestinal bacterial overgrowth where

the microbes are growing in the small

intestine instead of a large intestine

and if your pH is too weak if your acid

levels are too high too alkaline then

it’s going to be really hard to kill off

the microbes

that could be invading and start growing

into the small intestine and also acid

reflux okay these are all the symptoms

of low stomach acid here are some causes

number one hypothyroidism number two a

low salt diet why

sodium chloride chloride is needed to

make hydrochloric acid antibiotics and

an acid also gastric by-pass can creates

a situation because you’re altering the

the volume of the stomach and then have

something called h pylori which is a

microbial infection which can inhibit

gastric acids and low amounts of vitamin

b3 so all of these have the potential to

weaken the acid or create a deficiency

of acid in your stomach now one test you

can do to determine your ph of your

stomach is the heidelburgh test now when

I was practicing in my clinic there was

a test that we would do involving taking

a little capsule with a string on it

okay and you’d have the person swallow

this capsule with some water and you

would hold the string outside the mouth

and it would actually go all the way

down to the stomach

and we’d have them lay on their right

side for about 15 minutes and then we

pull up the string and then we would

actually identify the ph of the little

capsule okay so we can determine that

and quite a few people who have these

symptoms right here did not we’re not

even close to having a ph of one two

three they were like a four or even a

five which is interesting now I couldn’t

find this test anymore I don’t know

where to get it so a much easier way to

do this would be simply actually it’s

even a lot cheaper to just to take the

remedies to assume you have this and see

if your allergies improve okay

what are the two remedies betaine

hydrochloride and apple cider vinegar

these two remedies will help you acidify

the stomach to reestablish the normal pH

that you should have between one and

three now in this video I’m not going to

get into dosages or how long you have to

take it because I don’t know your

situation so go ahead and just read the

directions on the label and just go with

that right now

but the

point is that if your allergies are

being triggered by this situation and

you take these you’re gonna feel some

relief all right thanks for watching
