The Food Allergy Herbal Formula-2 (FAHF-2) Laundry List

So in all the time I've been writing about our experience with FAHF-2, I have never done a comprehensive post with all the links/info I've found over the years. Consider the situation rectified! I'll add to this as I find new sources. If you have good ones, please feel free to add them to the comments as well.

Dr. Li profile (new patient appointments: Sharon Hamlin, at 212-241-1755)

Note: I received an email complaint that people were calling Dr. Li's office asking for FAHF-2 "because of something they read on the web." Technically, "FAHF-2" (and now BFAHF-2) are experimental drugs only available through clinical trials. However, they are based on a traditional Chinese herbal formula that Dr. Li does use in her practice. Also, my son does NOT see Dr. Li...our only experience with all of this has been through the clinical trial itself.
