Dust

When it comes to allergies, dust really means house dust. House dust consists of the shed skin of humans (i.e. tiny bits of skin that fell off off the body of you, your firends and your family), yeast, dust mites, dust mite droppings, hair, and other little bits and pieces that most people would rather not think of.

OK, don't think of it. But do get rid of it!

Dust is a major allergen, and is generally unhealthy when inhaled.

Elimination Diet

An elimination diet is used to determine what food of foods are causing allergy symptoms or other undesirable effects.

The basics behind an elimination diet is that you remove any suspect food from your diet for a period of time - long enough for the food protein to clear from your bloodstream. Then reintroduce foods one by one, with a delay between each food of several days. This allows you to correlate a specific food with specific sets of symptoms.
