The power of a plant-based diet can never be underestimated. For more than 25 years, the Hallelujah Diet has been effectively eliminating sickness and helping people get back to living a strong and healthy life. By boosting the immune system with the nutrients and vitamins of raw, leafy greens and vibrant fruits and vegetables, the body's miraculous self-healing abilities kick into gear. There is not one area of health that raw eating does not impact. Take a look at how a primarily raw plant-based diet can help reduce and prevent allergies:

What Causes Allergies?

Numerous studies have indicated that diet has an effect on asthma and allergies. According to Asthma UK, avoiding certain foods and focusing on fresh, whole foods can help eliminate the severity of asthma as well as other allergies. Foods high in saturated fats, sugar, salt and items that are overly processed can trigger symptoms and make them worse. Specifically, arachidonic acid found in red meat has been linked to allergic inflammation because of the cytokines and leukotrienes it brings into your body, the Naturopathic Medicine explained. The necessary amount of arachidonic acid that the body needs is already produced naturally, eliminating the need for the consumption of red meat. Essentially, the Standard America Diet can weaken the immune system and make the body more susceptible to allergens. Avoiding the SAD can eliminate risk factors for allergies, as the Rev. George Malkmus has explained.

Focus on Diet, Not Pills

Food allergies, asthma and seasonal allergies strike all the time. Many Americans turn to over the counter medications to combat the effects of pollen, dust and mold and others rely on more intensive treatments for severe food allergies. However, pills are not the only answer, as Naturopathic Medicine explained. Diet has the power to create a lot of change with your health, including reducing the impact of allergies. Citing a report published international respiratory journal Thorax, TIME explained that a Mediterranean diet was shown to decrease the risk of wheezing and asthma in children. The dark leafy greens and consumption of Omega-3 were thought to play a role. If you struggle with allergies, start by focusing on a primarily raw, plant-based diet like the Hallelujah Diet. Numerous studies have shown that diets high in fruits, vegetables and beans can reduce symptoms of asthma and allergies. Incorporate foods that have natural anti-allergic properties including papaya, pineapple, turmeric, flax oil with vitamin E, spirulina and leafy greens, as Naturopathic Medicine highlighted. For more inspiration on diet and allergies, take a look at the testimonies of these individuals who got off allergy medication, reduced symptoms and started living healthier on the Hallelujah Diet.
