Food Intolerance, Low Carb Diets and ALCAT Testing

Food Intolerance and Weight Loss Accurate identification of food sensitivities is vital to a successful weight loss and healthy eating program. Food sensitivities can cause sugar cravings by inducing a serotonin deficit in the brain chemistry. The sufferer will attempt to compensate for this deficit, and the resulting feelings of discomfort, by consuming refined carbohydrates. The insulin surge that follows will drive branch chained amino acids out of the blood thus allowing

We May Not Have to Age So Fast

We May Not Have to Age So Fast

We all age chronologically with the passage of time, but what about our bodies? Is physiological aging inevitable too? A growing cadre of biologists is starting to say no, thanks to developments in the field of epigenetics, which studies not our DNA itself but the processes that determine how our genes “express” themselves in directing our cells throughout our lives. If you think of your inherited genetics, your DNA, as a piano keyboard, then epigenetics determines how the ke

Tailored Diet? Scientist Stalk the Dream of Personalized Nutrition.

No single food regimen works for everyone. A new study is the most comprehensive effort yet to understand why. A decade ago, spurred by the success of the Human Genome Project and the affordability of genetic sequencing, scientists began to explore the promise of “nutrigenomics.” Could personalized nutrition, informed by knowledge of an individual’s DNA, help prevent and even treat diet-related diseases? The results of early studies from Harvard, Stanford and elsewhere were c

ALCAT Test - a doctors' thoughts

Dr. Wright D.O., Medical Advisory Board: Other food sensitivity tests measure antibodies against food. Antibodies, except in the case of IgE-mediated classical food allergy are protective. That is they do not themselves produce symptoms, but they help rid the body of excess antigen. Thus, the body produces IgG antibodies to foods that are ingested regularly. That’s normal. In general, these IgG antibodies do not produce inflammation. The Alcat test, however, uses a live, cell

What's Driving Fibromyalgia?

What's Driving Fibromyalgia?

Dr. Jamie Wright talks “One on One” with Dr. David Brady about his new book, The Fibro Fix, and his 20 years of efforts to resolve the misdiagnosis of Fibromyalgia. “…initial diagnosis is accurate only 34% of the time.” Says Dr. Brady which is less than the flip of a coin. Patients with Fibromyalgia are not getting the treatment they actually need and are often put on FDA approved drugs for Fibromyalgia but those who don’t actually have Fibromyalgia will not be helped and may

ALCAT Test & Weight Loss

Food sensitivities knock the body’s biochemistry out of balance. As we know inflammation in our body contributes to Alzheimer’s, cancer, neurological diseases, autoimmune diseases, arthritis, and much more. These inflammatory mediators also have an effect on metabolism, which inhibit the fat burning, or induce the storage of fat. With chronic biochemistry out of balance the metabolism becomes sluggish, the immune system becomes impaired, the digestive tract develops leaks,

Inflammatory symptoms, immune system and food intolerance

Dr. ner. rat. Silvia Slazenger Inflammatory diseases and degenerative processes have greatly increased in the last decades and parallel the industrialization of food and modern life style. According to the GEK health report 2011 the most common disease of the German population is high blood pressure followed by depression and metabolic disorders such as diabetes 2 and over weight. Atopic disorders affect 5 -20%, about 50% of those patients suffer from atopic eczema. A 2010 su
