Food Sensitivities

Do you have digestive concerns that seem to be caused by food sensitivities?

Have you been told you have a food sensitivity, but aren’t sure what that means?

Confused about how to eat with food sensitivities?

Are you afraid that you will never be able to eat your favorite foods again?

We know that having food sensitivities can cause a lot of anxiety. It can be hard to enjoy eating when you are worried about what problems may arise in the following days. In addition to those digestive problems, it can also cause mood changes, headaches, joint and muscle pain, and fatigue. Trying to figure out what you can and cannot tolerate and reading through all the conflicting information out there is extremely frustrating! Going to a restaurant can be even more nerve-wracking, since you may not be completely sure what is in the food. Living with food sensitivities can feel like a challenge when many foods have to be restricted.

Addressing Food Sensitivities

Testing

We have several testing options for you if you are trying to figure out how your diet is affecting your symptoms. Our first option is MRT/LEAP food sensitivity testing, a blood test to determine your level of sensitivity to 140 foods and 30 chemicals. Our second option is stool testing, which tests for infection, inflammation, insufficiency, and imbalance in your gut. Our third option is vitamin and mineral deficiency testing, after which your dietitian can create a plan with what foods to eat and/or supplements to take that will support your body to function optimally.
