Journey of a mother finding solution for her son who has eczema and asthma.


I was truly touched by a selfless sharing by a mother who has greatly benefitted from the science of nutritional immunology. Below are the details of her sharing.

“Imagine as a mother I can’t even kiss my own son, when he was a new born baby. I can’t even touch his face. Everytime I touch his face, he started get irritated and scratch his face very hard and that hurts me a lot.”


I am here today because I would like to share my experience with you on why I chose Nutritional Immunology.

I grew up in Canada. I’ve been working in finance field for 4 years in Canada before I moved to New York, and worked as finance director for 13 years there.

It’s a busy lifestyle, I worked around the clock. Over the years, I realised my health deteriorating very fast, as I worked harder, and of course achieve more money, I want to make sure that my family is financially secure, have enough money where I can provide healthy food for my family to stay healthy.

I am a mother of two, daughter and son age 7 and 3.5 this year. After I gave birth my younger son, I realised my health is deteriorating even faster.  As a mother and working mother full time, I felt that my time has been stretch between work and my family. I have to make sure they go to school properly, I have to make sure that they have enough nutrients and when they get sick I need to attend to them as well.

Just to share my personal story on eczema and asthma. Before I moved to New York, I have been pretty healthy in my teenage years. Since I worked in finance field, I worked very hard. I started to have allergic reaction to food, many things, even household items. It irritates me, as my skin is itchy and rashes.

I started questioning myself what is happening to me, I didn’t have allergic since I was born. I started to have it when I am busy, when I am weak. My son also inherited the same allergic. He scratch himself very hard. Imagine a mother I cant even kiss my own son, when my baby was born. I can't touch his face. Everytime I touch his face, he started get irritated and scratch his face, and that hurts me a lot.

So I go everywhere to try to find any solution to solve this issue. I went to Chinese medicine, try holistic approach even herbal medicines. Until I came across this allergic specialist in New York through a referral.

I went to him hoping to find a cure for my son and myself. When I go to him, he told me that there’s no cure for eczema and asthma. My heart just sank, I was so sad. How come I tried everything, go to anywhere I could. I changed my lifestyle, changed all my household cleaners to as natural as possible and still cannot cure my son.

So I asked him what am I supposed to do.

He told me that eczema or asthma is just due to our body immune system reaction to harmful environment. Because of our modern lifestyle, we live in an environment full of pollutants, radiation where we used microwave, the convenience we have in our lifestyle we have now, we can’t avoid the air we breathe, many things, even the water we drink, when we eat out, we can’t always ensure the quality of food.

So our body is reacting to that. And I believe truly, as when we were born, we all born with a healthy immune system. That explain why I didn’t have allergic when I was young, it’s out of sudden when I am busy.

The doctor also asked me do you know that why I become a very famous doctor? Do u know why everybody has referred me?

He told me that every patient he has, he don’t want to see them again. He just want them to refer to him so that he can help as many as possible.

That surprise me, so I said: if u said u don’t have any cure for eczema/allergic, then why you become an allergy specialist.

He said: Do u know why, the best doctor in the world is actually our immune system. It’s not me.

Then I said how to boost our immune system.

He said it’s through our food, ourselves.

He asked me: Do u realise when u sick, that’s when your eczema flares up. Do you realise when you are weak, your body has allergic. When we are stress, when we sick that’s when our immune system is down and we have all the problems. And things like steroid is just temporary solution and not supposed to take forever.

So I said I am not supposed to rely on medication. He said yes. Once we bring our immune system back to optimum level, it will do whatever it supposed to do.

The only way is to change our lifestyle, as we are what we eat. I believe in that truly.

So when I met my neighbour, she mentioned to me her children seldom sick as she gives proper nutrition and there’s food supposed to boost our immune system through nutritional immunology.
I got truly interested in what is that to boost our immune system as I’ve been searching all over the world for the solution and I can’t find the answer.

Through NI, I believe all the wholesome super food is the solution for my son and myself.

Now, instead of steroid cream I gives him rose cream which I know it’s very safe for him, and no side effect as steroid cream will makes his skin thin.

And I have been coughing for 5 years, non-stop, I cough everyday and my husband get irritated as well. Taking medication, Chinese medication nothing cures me, and eventually doctor gave me stronger and stronger steroid. But still can’t cure my cough.

Now I know I just need to keep my healthy lifestyle, boost my own immune system, enough sleep, exercise everyday. I really thank you my neighbour for introducing me nutritional immunology, and I cant help to share this science to the people around me.
Thanks Ayrin for the selfless sharing on her eczema and asthma experience. Indeed, our best doctor in the world is none other than our immune system.
We just need to practice NI lifestyle, NI food as a convenience to nourish our immune system to stay healthy.
Feel free to contact me if you want to know how to stay healthy through Nutritional Immunology.
