I wish I could eat like this man - I have what's called OAS (Oral Allergy Syndrome) and I am allergic to all raw fruits and vegetables...I'm really sad about it :(

I'd like to see this with you. I'm suspicious that whoever diagnosed you with OAS is just confused as to what a cleansing reaction is. Actually, I don't think I've ever seen a doctor write the term "cleansing reaction"... TRY SLOWLY INTRODUCING RAW FRUITS!

• Make sure they are ripe. RIPE. Don't assume you know what ripe is...do your homework!
• Try growing your own tomatoes for fun, and then eat one of the tomatoes straight from the vine. Do you have a different reaction?
• Realize that most "allergies" are simply the bodies difficulty channeling the nutrients. There may be something more fundamental going on...I'm really not an expert on this part, but I hope this information may help!
• Try the water from raw, green coconuts :) Search youtube on how to open these. If you haven't done this before, it will be a fun project! Don't give up on your first raw green coconut...keep trying :)

Hope you find something that works for this for ya!! Don't fear the fruit! Follow @tedcarr on this.

Unfortunately it's the pollen of the fruits and trees that cause this reaction - I would like to take these suggestions though.

To be honest, I do notice a difference (especially in tomatoes) depending on the fruits color. If it's a deep red, I have less of a reaction - so there may be something to what you are saying here.

Thanks!

Fruits don't have pollen in them :D I'm sure you mean something else. But man that's super interesting what you say about fruits by the color.... keep up with the red fruits! :D
