About this title

Synopsis

Food allergy sufferers can find their own food allergies

Tiredness, irritability, poor concentration, headaches, cramps, diarrhea, congestion - food allergy causes or aggrivates these and other illnesses. The foods most commonly responsible contain certain dietary chemicals: monosodium glutamate (MSG), low calorie sweeteners, and the excess acid and refined sugar of our modern diet. Experience gained from years of treating patients with food allergy can show you how to recognize symptoms caused by these chemicals, which foods contain these chemicals, and how to follow a two-week elimination diet to determine if these foods cause your pain and discomfort.

About the Author

I am Dr. William E. Walsh and I grew up in St. Paul, Minnesota where I attended St. Luke's Grade School, Cretin High School and St. Thomas College, graduating in 1959 with a B.S. in premedical studies. I studied medicine at Creighton University and graduated with a Doctor of Medicine degree in 1963. After interning at St. Paul, Ramsey County Hospital, I served in the Air Force from 1964 to 1966.

Our base hospital had no allergy clinic to serve the many service men and women and their families who suffered from allergy so I started this clinic. I found that I enjoyed treating allergic patients. This interest remains as fresh today as when I first discovered it in 1966. Realizing that I needed further training to give my patients the best results of which I was capable, I studied allergy as a fellow of the Mayo Clinic. Graduating in 1970, I established my own clinic in St. Paul.

In 1972 and again in 1982 and 1989 I passed the tests of the Board of Allergy and Immunology, certifying and recertifying my status as a specialist in allergy. I am a fellow of The American College of Allergy and a clinical professor at the University of Minnesota where I teach allergy to resident doctors.

I believe strongly in the value of research in allergy; as a fellow at the Mayo Clinic, I co-authored studies on penicillin allergy. In practice I have published studies on the characterization of cyclodextrans and on skin test reactions and food allergy. My practice is a consulting practice in allergy; I diagnose and treat complicated allergy problems in patients referred by family doctors, internists, pediatricians and other specialists.
