We
basically eat the same foods day in day out…..we all have our favorites, but what
if those foods were contributing to your health problems? It could be that they are related to an
immune mediated response to common foods you eat every day.
“But I only eat healthy
foods and use products that are ecofriendly!”
Unfortunately
no matter how healthy these foods are, or how many times you read the label
stating “all natural/ organic”, your body may not be able to deal with them at
the moment, and they could be upsetting your immune system causing
inflammation. To make things even more complicated is that we often crave the
very foods we react to.
Not all reactions to food are
allergy! E.g. caffeine can cause headaches, animal fats can cause nausea, and
yeast can cause bloating. Allergic
reactions cause inflammation to tissues and nerves. Other foods can then aggravate this
inflammation and these are called intolerances.
An
inflamed digestive tract is unable to uptake or assimilate nutrients properly with
the immune mediated response becoming over reactive to common foods and
products you are exposed to everyday, preventing it from working properly leading
to symptoms such as food allergies, sensitivities or intolerance, hormonal
imbalances, toxicity, nutritional deficiencies, and much more……
The
Bio-Compatibility test uses a small piece of your hair and modern electronic
equipment, to measure your body’s compatibility against a standard list of 400
common LOCAL foods and household products- including all food groups, and
bathroom, laundry and kitchen products. We even test for chocolate!
The Bio-compatibility test is not an
allergy test, but shows immune reactions to foods. The program helps to support and repair a
compromised immune system so that eventually all reactions to food and products
may correct.
The
first stage of the program is getting the diet
changes right which will require a commitment from you to make changes that
will benefit your health long-term.
Are you doing the same thing everyday and
expecting a different result?
In
the second stage after 4 weeks on the program,
we will reassess your progress and introduce other therapies if required.
There
are also two specialty lists- one for testing babies and another for pets.
See
the lists below.
When will I see results?
Generally
an improvement in your health issues will be seen in the first 4 weeks of
changing your diet and other items that came up on your hair test to
avoid. Maximum improvement is seen when
you avoid these items for at least 6 months.
Some people see symptom relief in a few days while others may
take 6-8 weeks. It all depends on how
compromised the immune system is. Avoiding the RED foods/products
on your list allows your immune system time to repair and rebalance itself. If you re-introduce these items before
completing the 6-month avoidance, reactions may return.
At 6-9months it is advisable to be retested to check if the
offending items are still not compatible with you. If this is the case, it may
mean you need to avoid these item(s) altogether.
Do I need a consultation to have the Bio-Compatibility Hair Test
done?
Well this type of testing may be recommended as part of your
treatment plan here at the clinic, but it is also available to anyone to
purchase without a consult.
