Food allergies and your health
Are the foods you eat making you sick?
We've all heard the familiar saying you are what you eat.
Did you know that maintaining a healthy body involves more then just a healthy diet? Certain foods can trigger immune system responses, which can strain even a healthy body, and if continued over time, can potentially cause many debilitating illnesses.
Who has allergies?
Almost everyone knows someone who suffers from symptoms of allergy, including wheezing, runny nose, irritable bowel, migraine headaches, skin rashes, or a host of other common uncomfortable and often debilitating problems. Conservative estimates are that as many as 25% of the population have significant allergies to some types of food, chemicals, or inhalants. That is one in four people and could actually be more! The true incidence of allergy and intolerance may be considerably higher when including the less dramatic symptoms of occasional anxiety, joint aches, generalized fatigue, and water retention as well.
What can I do?
- A simple finger prick test will identify elevated antibodies to food allergens and delayed food sensitivities (IgG). These allergies may be contributing to undue inflammation in your body.
- Nutritional Laboratory Services allergy testing will help you discover with ease what you need to avoid in your diet to minimize symptoms from unnecessary inflammatory processes due to daily exposures.

Toxicity levels and your health
What are toxicity levels and why should I know about them?
Toxic metals & mineral imbalances in our bodies occur as a result of so many variables in our environment and lives.
If allowed to go unnoticed, mineral deficiencies, imbalances or toxicity can seriously affect your health.
Mineral deficiencies, imbalances or toxicity can result from:
- Prolonged exposure to environmental contamination and pollution
- Drinking contaminated tap water or eating fish with high mercury content
- Leaching from mercury dental fillings
- Prolonged exposure to exhaust fumes
- Exposure to chemicals and pesticides
- Poisoning from cigarette smoke, some paint and industrial waste
- Prolonged use of drugs, both prescription and recreational
- Eating diets high in refined and processed foods
- Great emotional or physical stress
Our bodies may respond with the following symptoms:
- Headaches
- Muscle pains
- Tremors
- Dizziness
- Depression
- Allergies
- Low immune system
- Concentration problems
- Rheumatic problems
- Tiredness and lethargy
- Hyperactivity and learning difficulties
Minerals in correct amounts are critical for sustaining life and for maintaining our bodies in optimum health and can add vitality to your
life. It could make the difference between living an unhealthy and lethargic existence or enjoying a healthy lifestyle.
How do I measure toxic and mineral levels?
Hair analysis is a reliable method for measuring mineral and trace element levels in the human body as well as for testing for the presence of toxic materials. The following minerals and toxic elements are measured: Calcium, Chromium, Copper, Magnesium, Manganese, Selenium, Iron, and Zinc, Arsenic, Cadmium, Lead, Mercury.
Since hair grows slowly, the test results are substantially more meaningful than examinations of blood or urine that may show merely the conditions on the day that the sample is collected.
On the basis of the results, you can decide for yourself whether, and in what form, supplementation or health care advice may be appropriate.
