Relief from these conditions can now be found in Dr. Ellen Cutler’s revolutionary program, known as BioSET™.

From Amazon.com
Since she was a young child, Ellen Cutler suffered from constipation, bloating, irritability, cravings, and fatigue from food allergies. She later studied chiropractic with an emphasis on nutrition. Through studying a number of alternative therapies, she developed BioSET--a protocol to treat food allergies and conditions that may be caused by food allergies, such as asthma, headaches, ADHD, and many other disorders.

Cutler's theories, conclusions, and treatments may elicit raised eyebrows from M.D. allergy specialists, although they are commonly used by naturopaths. She diagnoses allergies by means of muscle testing: the patient holds a glass vial of the allergen in one hand while the health professional presses down on the other arm, with weakness indicating allergy. Part of her process uses acupressure to stimulate points on the spine to activate energy blocks and reprogram the brain to stop identifying the substance as an allergen. Her treatment includes enzyme therapy.

Much of The Food Allergy Cure is a discussion of allergies, their symptoms (which can be just about any ailment, complaint, or condition), causes, and food triggers, with plentiful case studies of Cutler's success with patients. There is very little actual self-help information here. Usually Cutler discusses a condition and its roots in food allergies, and then describes how successful she is in treating patients with this condition using her BioSET system. The only at-home treatments described in the book are muscle testing, acupressure technique, an introduction to detoxifying activities, and a number of dietary suggestions and recipes. Other than that, she advises you to consult a BioSET practitioner (you're directed to the author's Web site for a referral list) and/or order the products she promotes. --Joan Price

From Library Journal
BioSET (Bioenergetic Sensitivity and Enzyme Therapy) is a combined approach to diagnosing and treating food allergies. Cutler, a chiropractor currently pursuing an M.D. and author of two books on alternative medicine (e.g., Winning the War Against Asthma and Allergies), developed this technique from principles based on acupuncture/ acupressure, chiropractics, homeopathy, kinesiology, and enzyme therapy. She introduces the reader to the mechanisms of food allergies and to her BioSET technique, which emphasizes the removal of blockages in electromagnetic pathways brought about by the allergic reaction. Although her reported treatment results are impressive, she presents very little substantial data or scientific background. Statements of fact are not backed up with references, and the brief bibliography includes no research articles. Cutler refers only in passing to NAET (Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique), upon which BioSET is heavily based. NAET, a more documented technique, was developed by Devi Nambudripad and explained in her book Say Goodbye to Illness (Delta, 1999). Not recommended. Andy Wickens, King Cty. Syst. Lib., Seattle
