The foods that we eat can cause inflammation and chronic
activation of our immune system. Each of us have food intolerances and
sensitivies that cause a cellular reaction after exposure to our blood
system. The sensitivity to certain foods is related to many conditions
such as the following:
Digestive disorders including IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), diarrhea and constipation
Migraines/headaches
Joint pain/arthritis
Food allergies
Obesity, unexplained weight gain/weight loss
Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue
Autism and ADD/ADHD
Skin disorders
If you or someone you know is suffering from any of these conditions,
call our office today to schedule your ALCAT test. The ALCAT test is a
simple blood test that measures the body's cellular response to
challenges from a wide variety of foods, including meats, vegetables,
nuts, seeds, oils and grains. The test also evaluates your response to
additives, food colorings, medications, herbs, supplements, molds and
other toxins that you may be exposed to.
Your test results are
presented in an easy to read, easy to understand color-coded format.
They highlight your incompatible foods and the level of reaction as
Severe, Moderate or Mild. The ALCAT test results clearly identify the
foods which are non-reactive or "safe" foods by putting them into a
personalized rotation diet specifically designed for you. By simply
eliminating the reactive foods, it helps detoxify your body and stops
the chronic inflammation and immune system activation. No pills or crash
dieting, simply eliminate reactive foods and your health improves. No
other test is as accurate or helpful in education yourself about foods
and your reaction(s) to them.
The ALCAT test has been validated
by demonstrating a high correlation with double-blind oral challenges
with both foods and food additives. A controlled study from Baylor
Medical College reported a 98% success for weight loss and/or
improvement in body composition from patients that followed the ALCAT
rotation diet.
"....within just 4 weeks of taking the ALCAT Test and following the rotational diet I lost 11 lbs, my stuffed nose and throat problems completely cleared and I now have much more strength during training." Christian Mayer, Olympic Skier
