Optimized Wellness Through Customized Nutrition
Welcome to a personal health revolution. To live fully, to express the highest and best qualities of positivity and vitality, your body must be as healthy as it can possibly be with the nutrients that are in you. Through the evolution of science and medicine we now know that people are very different in terms of assimilating foods and reacting to food additives, chemicals, molds and preservatives. Now more than ever, diet plays a critical role in preventing a wide range of degenerative diseases and premature aging.
Sensitivity and intolerance to specific foods and other agents can be the cause of digestive disorders, migraine headaches, obesity, chronic fatigue, aching joints, skin disorders, chronic pain and many more conditions. Food reactions, the foods the body silently can’t handle, can cause damage to every tissue in the body. That may be a new idea for you. Here’s the explanation.
First, it’s important to distinguish between food allergy and food sensitivity because they are two completely different things. You can die from a food allergy, as with allergy to peanuts, shellfish, strawberries, eggs and a long list of other foods, and the reaction is immediate. With a true food allergy you’ll never be able to eat that food again. Studies show that only about 6% of children and 2% of adults have a food allergy.
Food sensitivity, on the other hand, silently happens to most of us. Gluten, for example, is a silent sensitivity for an estimated 30% of Americans. What may seem odd is that the foods you might test intolerant to are often the foods you eat everyday, because by constant exposure sensitivity develops over time. Then as the food passes through the digestive tract it enters the bloodstream by microscopic little holes in the wall of the intestine and the immune system responds resulting in inflammation. Sixty to 80% of our immune cells reside in our digestive tract. When that’s not functioning properly, so many things can go wrong, and we can’t predict what the disease will be. The big problem is that symptoms may not happen right after you eat the food – and if symptoms are delayed people often have a hard time relating it back to what they ate.
Once you’ve identified the foods you’re reacting to it’s important to follow the elimination and rotation plans. You’ll be able to get the foods back in the diet at some point, but you’ve got to heal the inflammation these foods are causing or you’ll never be able to lose weight or completely relieve chronic symptoms that limit your quality of life.
Let’s say you’re having trouble reaching your fitness goals. Food and chemical sensitivity can be the one thing actually preventing you from getting to your goal weight because the absorption of foods will then be inefficient. Measuring sensitivities is measuring something that’s causing your body to be inflamed. When inflamed your body can’t function properly. Your metabolism can’t function properly; your digestive system can’t function properly; your body can’t metabolize the food and nutrients properly. When the immune system becomes activated it interferes with the body’s ability to burn fat, so the fat is stored rather than utilized for energy. That’s why it’s so important and revolutionary that we have tests like ALCAT test to help us.
As providers of this specialized experience, we’re able to absolutely customize the test for how you live and eat. Because each person is different, this becomes imminently valuable. We’ll tell you which foods your body processes and digests properly and which ones it doesn’t. This gives you control of your own health care, rather than taking prescriptions to overcome symptoms.
We’ve chosen the ALCAT test because unlike conventional tests there are options to also check preservatives, additives, colorings, chemical and environmental allergens linked to chronic health problems.  And importantly, ALCAT checks for intolerance at the cellular level. This provides information about foods you may be eating you’re intolerant to and have no idea.
At VitalCare we offer additional value by combining your food sensitivity test with the Wellness Assessment, personal report of test results and a Life Coaching session to get you off to a good start, because everyone gets good results if he or she complies with the food tolerance plan. And with the purchase of any Comprehensive Panel on the ALCAT list of tests you receive your Wellness Assessment and the first Life Coaching session with no additional charge. You then express control of your life and your health by making choices that promote your highest potential.
