The allergen level of newer, sealed buildings can be as much as two hundred times greater than that of older structures. — Richard Louv

After hearing about the Caracas experiment, the benefits of exposure to animals and farm dirt, and the protective qualities in raw milk, it became clear to me that Cody's assertions had some good scientific backing. Each of these factors played a role in raising resilient animals (and humans).

In 1986, Stuart Berger, MD, placed soy among the seven top allergens - one of the "sinister seven." At the time, most experts listed soy around tenth or eleventh. — Gabriel Cousens
