Nationally 41% of Americans are obese, 73% of Americans are overweight (including those who are obese). We are overfed but malnourished.
Processed foods and additives contribute to the problem. As a nation we have become less active and more prone to skip exercise. We begin by evaluating the cause and treat endocrine and nutritional factors. Changes to the diet can and does make a tremendous difference. There are many factors that result in weight gain and so it follows there are many reasons why people have difficulty losing weight. Food allergies are a common culprit which can cause weight gain or interfere with weight loss attempts. To effectively lose weight you must remove the existing obstacles; that is where we begin to help you on your journey to a healthier you.
We began our research into this topic by studying our demographic composition from the 1920’s forward. People were healthier back then and weight appropriate; the primary reason for that we the food was fresh, unadulterated, and without preservatives.
As society became more dependent upon processed foods the average individual became less and less weight appropriate. Most everyone is allergic to something and so it is understandable that those allergies will have an effect.
Think of lit like this: when things are in bloom and we sneeze or feel congested, it’s because our sinuses swell and react. That same process occurs when you have a food allergy- ergo the weight gain. You will be amazed at how different you will feel if we determine you have a specific food allergie and you eliminate it from your diet.
In our arsenal we also have an FDA approved class of peptides (compounds that consist of two or more amino acids linked in a chain, the carboxyl group of each acid being joined to the amino group of the next by a bond of the type -OC-NH-) that reduces the food craving which has produced impressive results. We can also help you find the right mix of diet and exercise that will produce the sorts of results you want.
Food allergy testing prices range from $159.00-$499.00
