Is it true that kids born out of a C-section have poor immunity?
There is some truth to that, but it turns out that C section babies are more prone to developing atopy in childhood and adulthood. The important factor is what skin flora colonizes READ MORE
There is some truth to that, but it turns out that C section babies are more prone to developing atopy in childhood and adulthood. The important factor is what skin flora colonizes the baby's GI tract: skin flora from the nurses, the caregivers and the mother OR the mother's birth canal. I recommend you read up on the role of the microbiome in C section babies. Some OB/GYNs are now using what is called a "seeding" procedure. Hope this information helps.

There is no "permanent cure" though allergy immunotherapy (allergy shots or allergy drops) can be very effective in essentially desensitizing you. There is no such thing as "best medicine". The choice of medicine depends on your symptoms - essentially you can take a nasal spray (there are at least five choices) and/or a pill (an antihistamine or leukotriene modifier) and/or decongestant or any combination of the above plus more. The choice of medicines is something you should discuss with your healthcare provider. I am sorry if this information seems too vague; it is the best answer I could come up with given the information your provided.

Why am I allergic to just soy milk and no other soy product?
My suspicion is because soy "milk" is not processed (i.e. it is "raw"). Without knowing what brand of soy milk you drink and how they process the "milk", this is just a guess.
