Welcome to Trailhead Health. These days we all know someone who's suffering from
allergies. We all know someone who can't eat certain foods or can't be around
certain things or maybe even carries an EpiPen. Why are we developing these
allergies? What is causing these allergies? What other forms of allergies
are there in addition to food allergies? and most importantly is it possible to
cure allergies? Is it possible to get rid of them? After all, we don't remember too
many stories of our grandparents or people back in the 50s developing
allergies. So what is different today? What is causing allergies to come up
today? At Trailhead Health we are committed to helping consumers find
answers to questions such as these every single day. Today we would like to
introduce you to Dr. Jay Wilson of Allergy Elimination Center of Minnesota.
Dr. Wilson received his doctorate in Chiropractic in the year 1964 and has
been in practice ever since he's a Doctor of Pastoral Medicine and a Health
Minister and lovingly calls himself a Holistic Allergist using the principles
of Biokinetics, Kinesiology, Chiropractic, JMT, NAET and Functional Medicine. Dr.
Wilson has developed a very unique method to not just manage allergies but
to get rid of them. He has had tremendous success with many of his clients in the
last 50 years and is a very strong advocate of people not having to live
with allergies. Allergies can be eliminated. His method does not involve
any invasive procedures, no needles, none of that and therefore it is especially
helpful in children. In this sit-down interview we talk to Dr. Wilson about
his methodology. How he developed it and why he's so confident that allergies can
in fact be completely eliminated.
So the other day a 12 year old asked me what are allergies and how come what you do it helps them and eliminates
them.Well, we develop allergies for a couple of main reasons. One is because of
our SAD American Diet. SAD meaning standard American diet. We don't have the
90 nutrients, the vitamins, minerals and enzymes that are necessary to make
the body work optimally. Our diet today ......Food is grown on mineral deficient
soil. It is laced with trans fats, sugars. It's just very unhealthy. And number two
is we live in a very toxic world. We live in a world where our water is toxic. Our
food is toxic, environment is toxic. Its been said you
can't get out of your bathroom in the morning without being exposed to 167
different chemicals. So what these toxins do is they kind of clog up the system
and they don't allow the body to work right. SO as a result of these two things -
our SAD diet and our toxic world, we start to develop allergies. Now people
think of allergies in terms of itchy eyes, runny noses and hives. Believe me
that is the smallest part. Allergies can cause digestive problems and female
problems and joint aches and muscle pains, behavior problems in children and
cognitive problems and on and on and on. In fact I made statement that there's
hardly a symptom or condition that is neither caused, aggravated or accelerated
with allergies. So because we don't feed it right and because we jam it up with a
bunch of toxins, then the body starts developing allergies and the allergies
simply mean in the body's language it's like a foreign invader. The body thinks
each allergen is a foreign invader. Like a bacteria, virus or something like that.
And so it reacts and the reaction might be having stomach problems. The reaction
might be your brain won't work right because of the different chemicals and
so forth. So how do we get well? Well, first of all we have to realize that the
body is a self-healing organism. The body has every drug, every chemical, every
hormone it needs, if we feed it the nutrients that it needs and if we remove
the toxins. So how do we go about doing all this/ Well first of all we do an
allergy test to see what allergies you're allergic to. Second, we do a blood
profile, very thorough one, where we test 67 different items in your blood. Testing
your liver, your thyroid your autoimmune functions, and your
blood count and everything. So we want to know what that diet, that SAD diet and toxic
world has caused in our body chemistry.
What functions have been disrupted and what are we deficient in and so forth.
And then we go about doing the detox. The detox program takes about three weeks.
It's eating a very specialized diet and taking supplements in order to pull the
toxins out of this system. And then we develop a plan to eliminate the
allergies, which is obviously what I do. And to develop a nutritional plan based
on the blood profile that we have done and where we determine what the
imbalance is and deficiencies are and then lastly we need to take a look at
altering your lifestyle. Because you know the definition of insanity. Doing
the same thing over and over again expecting different result.
So we need to take a look at our lifestyle so that we can change it,
improve it and move it toward a healthy lifestyle, so that we don't keep doing
the same things over and over again, that got us sick to begin with. So that's how
we get sick, that's how we get well and it's the only way I know of.
Dr. Wilson, is your treatment effective in children? Absolutely, positively, yes!
Many times I can change the direction that a child is going in. I can make lifetime changes
for them. I can take care of tummy aches, digestive problems, behavior problems in
children. One little boy that I took care of. His dad said you know when he gets
into something he's allergic to, he becomes "Atilla the hun" And after we
got done treating him for his allergies, we have this sweet little boy again.
In fact his mother told me that when she realized this,
she just broke down and cried because she said, I realized that I had my
my sweet little boy back again. And this is so rewarding to be able to help children.
That's going to make a lifetime change for them. We can help children focus
better, pay attention in school better. I've had situations where the diagnosis
for Autism Spectrum and ADHD have been dismissed by the doctor after their
allergies were cleared. So allergies are super important with kids. It's so
rewarding, so satisfying for a doctor to be able to change children's lives in
such a way. And the thing that is so so powerful I guess is that the idea of
allergies causing all these problems or allergies being that the root cause the
problem is not even on the parents radar screen and frankly it's not even on most
doctors radar screen. Okay they don't realize that there's hardly a symptom or
condition there is neither caused, aggravated or accelerated with allergies.
Dr. Wilson when you are doing the testing or screening for allergies what
type of allergens are you screening for? Now what are we screening for? Well we
screen for the usual inhalants, the moulds, pollens, trees, weeds and so forth.
And foods. We screen a lot for environmental issues, latex, formaldehyde
artificial coloring, flavoring preservatives. We screen for Autoimmune
problems. We can actually become allergic to different body
substances and this I believe is the foundation for a lot of autoimmune
problems. And so let me give you an example or not an example but let me
read an actual list of things and categories that we will be looking at.
One is inhalants like I mentioned the grasses, flowers, pollens, powders, smoke,
cosmetics, perfumes, chemical fumes such as paint, insecticides, fertilizers, flour
from grains etc And next would be ingestants. These are allergens that are
contracted through the normal course of eating a meal or enter the system
through the mouth and thus find their way into the GI or gastrointestinal tract.
These include foods, condiments, drugs, beverages, chewing gums, vitamins
supplements etc. We can have contactants. These are allergens that produce their
effect by direct contact with the skin. Examples of contactants include poison ivy,
poison oak, poison sumac, cats, dogs, rabbits, cosmetics, soaps, skin creams,
detergents, rubbing alcohol, gloves, hair dyes, various types of plant oils,
chemicals such as gasoline, dyes, acrylic nails, nail polish, fabrics and formaldehyde.
Another category is injectants These are allergens that are injected
into the skin, muscles, the joints and blood vessels in the form of various
serums, antitoxins, vaccines, drugs and they also include substances entering
through insect bites. Then we have infectants. These are allergens that
produce their effect by causing a sensitivity to an infectious agent such
as bacteria. And of course we can have genetic causes. Most people inherit their
genetic tendency from their parents or their grandparents. Allergies can also
skip generations and be manifested very differently in parents than in their
children. And then a large category of molds and
fungi and then like we mentioned the autoimmune problems. So these are all
different kinds of areas that we test in and with the way that I test we can also
have a patient or parent bring in a sample of a food or carpet or some other
item from their environment that I can test, use for testing and then also for
treating it. So it's a little different than most allergists. Dr. Wilson
in your experience with your clients and patients what are the most common
culprits when it comes to allergies and also is the list specific when it comes
to children? Common culprits- Dairy, Gluten, Soy, Sugar,
Eggs are the most common ones. With the children especially with ADHD, the
artificial coloring, flavoring, preservatives, huge. Dr. Wilson
how did you develop the allergy elimination method that you do that just
doesn't seem to be any doctor around that we've seen that does it exactly the
way you do it. How did you come up with it? Well first of all I have
developed it over a course of 40 to 50 years and so what I've done is I have
found certain aspects of different treatment methods that are effective and
at work and I've kind of put them together. Nobody I guess does exactly
what I do because what I do is gradually evolve through the last couple dozen
years using different methods. We use for example NAET. Some people are
familiar with it. It stands for Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique. I use
Biokinetics which is a form of treatment for all kinds of problems.
And Jaffe-Mellor technique and what I've done is I've taken what I feel is the best, most
effective part of each part of these treatments and put them together. And
then we have to straighten that diet around. Clean the diet up and if
necessary give the supplements to balance the body chemistry. And so that
we can bring about healing like it should be.
We've looked at the problems from different aspect. We don't just limit it
to allergies. But sometimes there can be emotional components that can be a
problem.Sometimes we need to talk about exercise. Sometimes we need to really
talk seriously about sleep issues. Because all of these can come into the
picture if we want to get lasting results and effective results. And I guess
simply put I found many things through the years at work and I've eliminated things that don't work.
I don't do the usual medical testing with the pin pricks on the back. We use a
form of Applied Kinesiology. And what I do is we have the patient lay on the adjusting
table. When we do we'll find that one leg is going to be longer shorter than the
other. Then I'll check a bunch of reflex patterns to see why that's happening and
then we'll make some adjustments on the spine. When we get done the legs will
balance out and they'll be even. System will be balanced. Now the body is an
electromagnetic field. So if we bring something in contact with that body
that's not good for it, its either toxic or allergic, the whole nerve and muscle
system tenses right up and then guess what happens that leg pulls up short
again and it happens almost that fast. Because we're dealing with the nervous
system, the electrical system of the body. If it's not a problem it doesn't react.
It just stays even. So what this does for us, it helps us to identify not
only the true allergens but also helps us to identify the hypersensitivities. In
my experience there isn't much difference between a real allergy which
develops antibodies and can be detected in the lab test
versus hypersensitivities which can't be tested with a lab test and they both
react almost identically in the body adversely. The other thing is, is that it
enables us to have a patient bring in their sample of whatever they might be
suspicious of, from their environment. It might be food. We just have them bring in
the tablespoon of food. Might be the family dog, so we'll have bring in a hair
of the dog and a saliva sample. It might be a piece of carpeting that they
put in, that's new in their environment. So anything that's questionable we can
have the patient bring in a sample. We can then use that for testing and then
if that turns out to be that's a problem, then we can also turn around and use it
for treating. Thank you Dr. Wilson. As I'm listening to you talk about allergies
the one thing that is coming to my mind is maybe children should just be
screened for allergies.What is your opinion on that? Yes! First of all, most
allergies are hidden. Because people don't know that they're allergic to
different items or foods and so forth and they're not aware of the effects
that they can have on them. So, if we were able to screen all children we
would be able to find problems that would be affecting their behavior,
affecting their focus in school, their ability to learn and their coordination in
sports, all kinds of problems. For example I had a child with growth problems,
wasn't growing. After her allergies were cleared
she grew four inches in just a few months. And this is something that
parents wouldn't even think about. Is not on their radar screen. So if we were to do
an allergy screening test for all children it would make a huge difference
in their health. So let's say that through the screening process we've come
to identify 12 different things that we maybe are allergic
or hypersensitive to. Once that determination is made how do you go
about treating each and every one of these allergies? Well, first of all each
allergen is eliminated usually with one treatment. I know that sounds
unbelievable but that's our usual experience. Sometimes if it's the real
deep-seated allergen or one that's really affecting the individual
adversely it might take two or three treatments in order to clear. Once we've
gone through the entire treatment program to whatever a number that we've
started out with, I will then wait three months. At the end
of three months I have the patient back again and will retest everything that
was positive initially and be sure that they're holding. We might find that there
might be one or two that might need an additional booster treatment. Well that's
great. So we've determined that we need to handle each treatment for each allergen
individually. What does a single treatment involve? Is it in any way
painful or invasive? Can it hurt and really how long does each treatment take?
Nothing that I do in my office is in the least bit painful and this is why I get
along great with kids. Because we don't use needles, nothing hurts and they love
us for it. Okay, so how long does it take? Each treatment takes about 15 minutes.
What we do is, we get the patient adjusted so that their system is
balanced, their legs are even and then we put a vial in their hand whatever we're
going to be testing that day, if it's eggs or milk or whatever it is. When we
do that leg will go short and then I'll come up and I'll work on what I
call the master reset button. It's actually the brain stem and a major
acupuncture point. And I use a little instrument to do it. Its....infact I will show you what
it looks like. I carry it with me all the time. It's very light and just a
light click and we use that at a point up here. And when we get done we'll go back
down, we'll find that the legs will be even. So once the legs are even, we'll take
the vial out of their hand, out of their energy field, for a short time, just seven
to ten seconds. Then we put it back in their hand and we'll find that maybe the
first time that leg went up by half an inch short. This time it's only about a
quarter of an inch short, so it's reacting less. So then we'll come up and
we'll work on the master reset button again. We'll come back and the legs will
be even again. We'll take the vial of their hand and wait seven to ten
seconds, put it back in and this time maybe it would be an eighth of an inch off.
So every time we do this cycle, it reacts less and less until pretty soon it
doesn't react at all. So when we've done that then we use a laser to work on
Acupuncture points. We acupuncture the acupuncture points in
the ear There's branch of acupuncture called
Auricular Therapy and in the Auricular Therapy the whole body is represented in
the ear. And I have a chart on the wall, I can show the patients this. And so
we laser the whole ear for a short time and then we laser down either side
of the spine, because there's a major acupuncture meridian or energy channel
called the bladder meridian, starts here on either side of the bridge of the nose,
goes up over the head and down both sides of the spine, down both legs, all the way to
the little toe. And we work on the bladder meridian with the laser because
there are all kinds of other connecting points with the other eleven meridians.
So our goal here is while the patient is holding that allergen in their hand, we
want to normalize the acupuncture energy system. So we are in essence saying to the
body, it's okay now, it's not a threat, it's not a foreign invader, it's okay. And
so when we get done the links will be even or the short leg actually might be
longer, it's overcompensated, and that's actually where I want it to be. So then
we're done with the treatment for the day. Oh excuse me missed a couple of points. And
we laser acupuncture points in the hand and the wrist and in the knee and in the
foot and then we're done. Then when patient comes back on the next visit
we'll get them balanced again, then we'll take the vial for the substance that we
treated last visit put it in her hand and see if it reacts.
If it does we might have to treat it a second time. If it doesn't then we move
on to the next allergen. And that's how we do it. Simple, easy, effective and
painless. That's great! So when you start the treatment there's two questions that
come from your explanation. One is every treatment seems to start with
chiropractic adjustment. Why is in your opinion that's so significant and
important and the second is you mentioned stimulating the acupuncture
points using laser. Why laser? How did you opt for that? The treatment that we do is
with chiropractic care to line the spine be sure that the nerves are working
right because nerves control every organ, action, tissue, function, cell in our whole
body. So the nerves have to be working right, working correctly. So the treatment
is with, like I said, chiropractic adjustment first and then we use the
laser acupuncture. We use acupuncture but we use lasers. A lot of times people
don't realize that there are many different ways you can
stimulate acupuncture points. And we use lasers instead of needles because lot of
times people especially kids have an aversion of needles and the other thing
is it's much quicker and faster. So that if we were going to use needles the
patient would have to lay on the table for 20 minutes and to have a
hyperactive child lay on the table for 20 minutes with needles sticking in them
just ain't going to happen. So we want to use the quickest way which is lasers and
so what we're actually doing is we're we're saying to the body it's okay now.
This allergen that we're treating you for is not a foreign invader. It's
okay and it's not a threat to you and so that's what we're doing with
allergy elimination work. Sometimes people say to me you know Dr. Wilson
you just tested me for allergies and you came up with 23 allergens and I'd really
like to just take care of the top six ones that I know that I'm allergic to.
Can we do that? And my answer to that is no. And the reason is because if we treat
six allergens out of 23 we're still going to have 17 that are dragging the
immune system down and we're going to not have lasting results with the six
that we did treat. You have to remember that most allergens are actually hidden.
They're hidden, we don't know that we have them and most of the time we don't
realize how those allergies are affecting us. Because allergies can
affect us in so many different ways whether it's digestive, whether it's
joint pains or muscle aches or female problems or kids problems. So we're not
aware of that. So for that reason you know I I only treat whatever we find and
get rid of all of them and then that's going to jack the immune system up where
it belongs and the body will take care itself. Thank you Dr. Wilson. I do have
one question for you around just expectations from you as far as your
patients are concerned. What are you expecting from your patient that is
coming to receive this treatment? You know the scripture says my people died
for lack of knowledge. And I feel that one of the reasons that we get sick
today is people don't realize what's necessary, why they get sick and what's
necessary to get well again. And so I feel that patient education is
absolutely primary and a very important part of my care. The word doctor actually
means to teach and so we should be teachers and so we should be teaching
people how to not only get well, but how to stay well. So this is what you can
expect for me. What I expect from you is you need to realize and accept the fact
that we're in a partnership. I have to do my part and I expect you to do certain
things. So when I coach you and educate you on lifestyle changes which are
extremely important that you will take them and run with them and incorporate
them into your way of being. You remember the definition of insanity, don't you?
You know doing the same thing over and over again expecting different result.
Well, if we're going to go back to the lifestyle that set up the environment,
the situation that would drag our immune system down and cause allergies then
we're not going to get lasting results. So in order to get lasting permanent
results we need to be willing to change our lifestyle.
And I feel my job is to educate you and train you in a way that is healthy and
it's your job to take the ball and run with it.
So I expect a certain commitment from patients and it's important because I
can't do the whole job. Again it's a partnership. It's both of us working
together, both of us having the common goal of getting you well or getting
you healthy and get rid of your allergies. Sometimes people ask me can you
eliminate an allergen that's caused an anaphylactic shock? And my answer to that
is no I can't. I can sometimes help make it less sensitive so that if they get
exposed to it accidentally they won't go into anaphylactic shock but it's not
something I say yeah we're going to eliminate this allergy just like I do
some of the other allergens.
Dr. Wilson you know so much about so much. How do you keep up with everything
and and how are you able to evolve your treatment method?
First of all, I love learning. I think when you quit learning you're dead. So I
love learning, I love reading. I love new things I loved especially to to be on
the leading edge when things develop. I love to be able to bring things to
people that are new and effective. I guess that's the main thing is we're
looking for what's effective, what's going to help people the most and
finally I just love educating and teaching people healthy lifestyles and
eliminating their allergies. Its my sport, it's my
hobby, it's my vocation, it's my mission. My wife actually says that if I won the
lottery I would still continue practicing and that summarizes I guess
why I'm still practicing and all of my classmates are retired already.
Thank you Dr. Wilson. So there you have it folks. In this whole presentation we
covered how allergies can be eliminated naturally. If there's two things you can
remember out of this whole entire recording it's as follows. Number one
there's hardly a symptom or condition that is neither caused, aggravated or
accelerated with allergies. And the second and perhaps the most important
thing - The body is the self-healing organism. The body has every drug, every
chemical every hormone, it needs to get well and stay well, provided we feed it
right and get rid of the toxins, eliminate the allergies. Thank you Dr.
Wilson. If you have any further questions for Dr. Wilson and his Allergy
Elimination Technique, please feel free to reach out to him at
