ALCAT TEST SAN DIEGO

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

Something about the industrial processing of food makes us more likely to overeat, according to a new study. Volunteers ate more and gained more weight on a heavily processed diet than an unprocessed one, even when the two diets had the same available calories and nutrients. The study is “a landmark first,” and a “shot over the bow” in a debate over the health of processed food, says Steven Heymsfield, an obesity researcher at Louisiana State University’s Pennington Biomedica

People with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) become exquisitely attuned to the rumblings and sensations in their bowels. They know that digestive mishaps—unexpected flatulence, can’t-stop-it diarrhea, painful cramps, etc.—can occur at any moment. Frequent bathroom trips become a way of life and prevent some people from even going out. Even more frustrating, their doctors can’t always help. It’s difficult to predict what will make symptoms better or worse. Food sensitivities are

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

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

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,

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
