Larry,
You said this to Scott in a previous post in this thread:
"... cholinergic urticaria? It may be caused by incomplete digestion of protein in the stomach. You may benefit from e.g. bromelain supplements. It also has anti-inflammatory activity."
Is that just a theory or is there some real evidence that incomplete digestion of protein causes urticaria? Are there any other theories or facts about possible causes of cholinergic urticaria? As someone who itches like crazy every time I try to exercise, I'd be very interested in knowing the answer to that. If, in fact, the cause is undigested protein, then that might also account for the fact that I don't respond to amino acid precursor treatment, and might just explain my depression in general.
Also, I have quercetin/bromelain capsules here at home. I'm wondering how much to take for allergy and digestion. Each capsule contains 250 mg. of quercetin and 125 mg. of bromelain.
Thanks.
-K
