Join our next Information Meeting
Many chronic symptoms - like eczema, asthma, sinusitis, diabetes, and more are in fact related to our food intake and immune system.
- Why are some people more likely to suffer from them?
- How can we prevent these diseases from appear, or lower their impact on our daily lives?
Little research is being done in that field.
We would we very happy to meet you, discuss our mission, and see how we can together help research for a better immune system.

During this interactive session, Prof. Diana Derval, chair of the board of directors of the foundation, will present the current research on taste and diabetes being conducted jointly with OLVG hospital in Amsterdam.
A "borrel" will give us the opportunity to brainstorm and design action plans in a friendly atmosphere.

Eczema, Asthma, Hayfever, Sinusitis, and Food Allergy
[Facts] In Europe, 80 million people are allergic. In certain areas of African, Asia, and America, for instance, more than 90% of the population is intolerant to lactose. Worldwide, 300 million people are suffering from asthma. In Finland for instance, 9% of the adults are asthmatic, 15 to 20% have eczema, and 30% have an allergic flu. In the USA, 4% of the overall population and 6% of the children are asthmatic, 4% (12 million people) suffer from food allergy and 11% (37 million people) from allergic sinusitis.
[Symptoms] Common symptoms for food allergy are nausea, cramps, bloating, gas, diarrhea, difficulty breathing/asthma, itching, eczema, frequent colds, bronchitis, sinusitis, ear infections, sneezing, red eyes, dizziness, headaches. A food allergy might start as an eczema and turn into an asthma, a hayfever or a sinusitis after a couple of years, or even an acne. The food allergy rarely ‘disappears’, it mutates.
