If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, they may be caused by low-grade inflammation from the foods you're eating, even healthy ones.
A food sensitivity is an adverse reaction to a food or food component that is not caused by an immune system response. It is usually a milder reaction than an allergy, and symptoms can sometimes take up to four days to appear.
Food sensitivities can occur because of multiple factors including genetics, environmental factors, and the body's inability to properly digest certain foods. Sensitivities can also occur if we're not rotating our foods/diet appropriately (it's very important to NOT eat the same foods from day to day). If we're not rotating foods, then we're repeatedly stimulating the body's immune and cellular systems with the same nutritional biochemistry and this can cause problems.
​
By taking a simple Food Sensitivity Test at home, you'll easily be able to see which foods are causing you problems. You'll receive a report by email which clearly details your food sensitivities. You'll also receive a detailed explanation of why food sensitivities occur, as well as step by step instructions to follow in order to heal your gut.
