Food sensitivities are the often forgotten step sibling of food allergies. We think of food allergies as BIG, and food sensitivities as LITTLE, but this is not quite accurate!
I've had lots of clients come to me with inflammation, exhaustion, hives, joint pain, migraines, chronic pain... They have been tested for food ALLERGIES by a doctor but found nothing. No one ever told them about food SENSITIVITY testing! Or, they did one of those at home, not terribly accurate food sensitivity tests. Once we do REAL food sensitivity testing, with digestive healing support, inflammation decreases and dramatic improvements can be experienced.
What do food sensitivites feel like?
10 years ago, I broke out in hives after every meal.
10 years ago I woke up in the middle of the night gasping for air, multiple times per week
10 years ago I had recurring migraines.
10 years ago my joints hurt constantly.
10 years ago I had brain fog, anxiety and insecurity.
10 years ago.... I decided to change everything and today, that is all gone. Poof. Haha actually a lot of hard work in between, but a new lease on life is entirely possible for me and you! The work is worth it.
How do we develop food sensitivities?
Foods sensitivities are a MAJOR player in health problems and especially in those mysterious "unresolvable" health conditions. Food sensitivities are the results of a breakdown of function and integrity of the digestive system. This activates the immune system in extremely troubling and life changing ways. If not dealt with it spirals into much more serious health conditions from autoimmunity to mental health disorders to serious chronic pain issues.
Food sensitivities typically arise due to digestive dysfunction which amps up the immune reactivity to foods. We remove food sensitivity foods while healing the digestive system to prevent future health spirals like autoimmunity. The good news is it is totally possible to calm down these inflammatory spirals. Food sensitivities do not necessarily last forever with proper healing strategies. My clients go back to eating many of the foods they enjoy, but gave up short term to heal.
I have seen PMS melt away, brain fog lift, joy return and so much more with simply doing a proper test for food sensitivities removing those foods temporarily (6 months) WHILE HEALING THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM.
