Food allergy as a cause of fatigue
The starting point for tackling this is the Stone Age Diet. This also helps identify other foods to which one may be sensitive because the major allergens are out of the way! Food allergy is the great mimic and can produce any symptom. In my early days of treating CFS I did not have many tools to use - but because I started with allergy and Enzyme Potentiated Desensitisation (EPD). I used this tool a great deal. The results were surprisingly good which told me that allergy is often an important but unrecognised player.
I am often caught out by allergies to chemicals (and therefore chemical toxicity - the two go together) and allergy to moulds - very difficult to avoid in the UK - see Mould Sensitivity.
Related Tests
I do not consider tests for food allergy to be very reliable so I r=arely request them. Perhaps the most reliable (but not to be depended on) is the Comprehensive Food Allergy Profile.
