Abstract

This is a case report that illustrates the reduction of immunoglobulin E titers and clinical reactivity of peanut allergy in a patient, using Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Techniques (NAET®). The patient’s initial symptoms and immunoglobulin E result correlated with an oral challenge test which showed signs of anaphylaxis upon ingestion of a fragment of dry-roasted peanut. The symptoms subsided after the patient completed a program of treatments, which lasted approximately 18 months. Moreover, the immunoglobulin E titers decreased in two different types of immunoassays after a total of 18 months: HY*TEC enzyme immunoassay (Hycor Biomedical Inc, Garden Grove, CA) and ImmunoCAP system (Phadia, Uppsala, Sweden).  A repeat oral challenge test was performed with peanut concentrate solution (1:20 weight/volume extract by Greer Laboratories, Inc - Lenoir, NC), and the patient exhibited no reaction after ingesting up to 1 gram of peanut protein gradually over a three-hour period. This report could support further investigation into the possibility of successful desensitization towards food allergies using NAET®.
