More "guessing" and "gossip":

"Certain foods, particularly dairy products, may cause airway mucus to
appear more viscous or increased in volume."

Treatment. 1996, p. 224.

"The correct diet plays an important role in the treatment of
sinusitis. Most sinus sufferers with sinus trouble also suffer from
acidity therefore their diet should be more towards the alkaline
side." http://www.sinuswars.com/newsletters/FoodsToBeAvoided.asp

Just as there are some difficult-to-digest foods that cause excess
mucus to build up, there are other foods, digested easily that
naturally have the opposite effect.

"We investigated the effect of the fruits of Poncirus trifoliata (L.)
Raf (Rutaceae) (FPT) on expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines by
activated human mast cell line,.. Our in vitro studies provide
evidence that FPT might contribute to the treatment of mast cell-
derived allergic inflammatory diseases." Toxicol In Vitro. 2006 Oct;20
(7):1071-6.

"A good, healthful diet including fruits and raw green leafy
vegetables can help stimulate secretions and break up sinusitis."
Natural Herbal Beauty, Nov. 2008. http://herbalbeauty.blogtells.com/2008/11/19/health-tips-for-sinusitis/

"Eating more fruits and vegetables, the high water content, cleansing
foods and less meat and milk products will create less congestion and
more elimination." -Basic Body Detoxification and Cleansing, 2007, p.
5.

"When we eat a congesting diet higher in fats, meats, dairy products,
refined foods, and chemicals, detoxification becomes more necessary."
Basic Body Detoxification and Cleansing, 2007, p. 7.

Why retox after detoxing? It seems these authors are "guessing" the
same thing I guessed when I eliminated sinusitis with acidifying,
mucus-forming foods...

in place of demonstrated evidence based
information.

For one prone to propaganda, it only remains which one buys into as
there are those which contridict each other but each having choirs in
full voice nonetheless.

Besides anecdotal reports I alluded to, I provided several other
sources of evidence-based research On Jun 4, 4:43 pm:
1. Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol. 2002 Sep;283(3):G521-8.
2. J Nutr. 2003 Nov;133(11):3499-503.
3. J Dairy Sci. 2007 Feb;90(2):541-6.
4. Altern Med Rev. 2006 Sep;11(3):196-207.

Reduce or eliminate animal products from your

Those sources I provided, detected mucus formation that results after
consuming the common dietary mucinogen, cow milk. This went unrefuted
as no alternative explanation was provided that contradicts the fact
that dietary mucus is produced from consumption of the acidifying/
proteinaceous milk product. Science doesn't start with 'proof',
rather, science is about gathering evidence and developing an
understanding to provide explanations. And for some- to actually use
such information for diet choices. You may choose to go against the
available evidence (unapplied or anti-applied science) but that makes
as much sense as playing in traffic (when you're not sitting on your
hands demanding proof) just because you believe there is no "proof"
that you'll be hit by a vehicle. Now you're celebrating a 'rest[ed]
case'.

I rest my case.

Since you refuse to respond to the evidence provided and refuse to
provide contrary evidence, while demanding more evidence from others,
this concludes another game of bash-the-mole.
