The following information was obtained from an interview with Roy Gaha and is distributed with his
permission
At an early age Roy had been aware of his allergy to fish. A physician uncle in total disbelief of the severe
allergy placed a piece of fish in a casserole dish. After Roy ate some of the casserole he experienced
severe breathing problems and was rushed to a hospital for emergency care. The allergy had triggered
sudden severe asthma or bronchial spasm. The uncle was forever apologetic.
At his place of business Roy experienced sudden breathing problems. He did not smell fish but suspected
its presence. At approximately 15 feet distance in another room he observed a child eating a fish
sandwich. He yelled to get the fish sandwich out of the building. The mother of the child recognized Roy’s
acute respiratory distress and rushed the sandwich and child out of the building. Roy rushed out of the
building through another door. Fortunately the sudden asthma attack resolved without requiring hospital
emergency care. This was the first occasion that Roy suffered an attack of asthma in the mere presence of
fish when he had not smelled it.
Roy is a member of his local Rotary Club. The luncheon club meets weekly on Friday noon, a day on
which fish is served often. Roy is able to detect when fish is being served when he opens the door of the
building. Some members were aware that he did not attend the club meetings when fish was served. Most
were not aware of his severe life-threatening allergy.
Roy’s allergy to fish plus allergies to several other substances were removed with Nambudripad Allergy
Elimination Technique (NAET). Roy is no longer allergic to fish. He has been able to attend Rotary
luncheons and even sit next to persons eating fish. He has had no more allergic reactions. He has not yet
had the courage to eat fish. Most members of the club are unable to comprehend the magnitude of Roy’s
life-threatening allergy problem and the health importance of removal of his allergy to fish.
Severe sudden allergic reactions are called anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis can be triggered from substances
inhaled, eaten, injected or contacted by the skin. The reactions can be mild such as a sudden swelling of
an eyelid, lobe of an ear or the upper lip. They can be moderate with perhaps vomiting or weakness.
Sudden asthma or spasms of the bronchial tubes has been known to result in death in five minutes. A man
allergic to formaldehyde unknowingly entered a room with newly installed carpet and died from a sudden
asthma attack. A young lady suffered a fatal asthma attack in a restaurant in Seattle after eating guacamole
with sulfites used to maintain a pleasing green color. Cardiovascular shock is another manifestation of
anaphylaxis. Sudden itching accompanies many cases of anaphylaxis. One bite of caviar triggered sudden
intense itching of the palms of the hands and soles of the feet and weakness indicating the beginning of
cardiovascular shock. Fortunately vomiting eliminated much of the allergic substance and recovery
followed. Anaphylaxis from peanut allergy is a huge problem especially in children. Allergy can occur
from almost any medication administered by mouth or by injection. The reaction can be mild or severe
with anaphylaxis that can be fatal.
Allergies can be removed from the body with Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET).
Reactions including anaphylaxis as was the case of Roy’s body’s response to the presence of fish even
from a distance of several feet can be prevented by removing the allergy. The conventional treatment and
prevention of most allergies includes avoidance of the substance, antihistamine medications, carrying of Epi
Pens to treat sudden reactions and immunotherapy for a few substances. The introduction of NAET
offers a wonderful new method of actually removing the allergic reaction from the body and prevention of
future reactions. Allergies to substances inhaled, swallowed, or contacted by the skin can be eliminated
and allergic reactions can be prevented with NAET.
