Food Sensitivity & Food Cross Reactivity
Have you ever wondered if what you are eating is affecting your health? We have found that food sensitivities have been the underlying cause of a multitude of symptoms people are experiencing, such as headaches, migraines, arthritis, asthma, colitis, sleep disorders, eczema, bedwetting, fluid retention, and even depression.
Did you realize that the majority of “food allergies” reactions are delayed reactions, meaning they may not present themselves for up to 3 to 4 days after consumption? In other words, the reaction you are having today may be due to something you ate 3 to 4 days ago. This is not the same test as what an allergist might run. Those tests are looking for acute Hypersensitivity as opposed to a delayed onset hypesensivity reaction. This is a blood test which measures your antibody (immune) response as well as cross reactive foods.
Are Hidden Food Allergies Making You Fat and Sick?
Food allergy is an IgE immune system response that is typically characterized by hives, shortness of breath, upset stomach and in some cases anaphylaxis. The most common food allergies are to nuts, shellfish, wheat and dairy. According to the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network, only about 4% of the United States population has a food allergy. Food Sensitivity Testing does not detect Food Allergy.
Food intolerance, on the other hand, is much more common than food allergies and is characterized by digestive disorders, migraines, obesity, chronic fatigue, aching joints, skin disorders and behavioral issues. It has been stated that upwards of 70-80% of the US population has food intolerance. Unfortunately for many, those food intolerance symptoms are often identified as individual problems and treated as such, thus treating the symptoms and not the cause.
Serum tests provides patients and healthcare professionals information to successfully overcome a wide variety of conditions.
The inability to tolerate foods and environmental factors, also known as sensitivity or intolerance, induces chronic activation of the innate immune system and gives rise to inflammatory processes.
This inflammation has been linked to countless chronic conditions including: digestive disorders, migraines, obesity, chronic fatigue, ADD, aching joints, skin disorders, arthritis, and many more.
