Food Sensitivity Testing

 Have you ever wondered what food(s)/chemical(s) you are sensitive to? Are you having trouble with health conditions such as migraines, IBS, fibromyalgia, GERD, eczema, unexplained rashes, inability to lose weight.... 


Did you know that if your body is in a constant state of inflammation, you could be triggering onset or consistent challenges with these conditions (and more). Every time that you consume a food//item/chemical that you are sensitive to, your body produces and releases mediators. Mediators are the endpoint of all inflammatory reactions and are your primary cause of symptoms associated with food sensitivities. By removing foods that your body is sensitive to, it can allow your body to calm down and heal, allowing you to feel better and symptoms to resolve.  


But how do you learn exactly which items YOU are sensitive to? 


We test! 


MRT (Mediator Release Testing) can help you pin point exactly what your food sensitivities are, which then allows us to follow the LEAP dietary protocol to assist your body and immune system to calm down and symptoms to improve and/or completely resolve. 


What does that look like? Let me show you. I completed my own MRT test so I will share my results!




As you can see, I am VERY reactive and sensitive to cow's milk. And moderately sensitive to quite a few other items. With following the LEAP protocol, I would then be able to construct a diet that consists of the lowest reactive foods, which will allow my body to heal. From there I will be able to strategically introduce items back into my diet and monitor for signs/symptoms of sensitivity, removing those that have noted issues. 


If this MRT testing is something that you feel may benefit you, please reach out. I'd love to talk and see if this would be the right testing method for you!
