Reactions to foods – exclusive of allergies – is often a significant indication of dysfunction of certain systems of the body or of unbalance of the body chemistry.

Disturbance caused by fats? Gallbladder and liver dysfunction.
Disturbance caused by carbs? Liver and pancreas dysfunction.
Disturbance caused by proteins? Diminished gastric secretion.
Disturbance caused by milk and dairy products? Spleen-thymus dysfunction.

Eating meat from grass-fed beef is not the issue.

Dysbiosis

The National Digestive Diseases Clearinghouse states that 60-70 million people are affected by all digestive diseases (1996), that there are 14.5 million non-institutionalized adults with diagnosed ulcers, and that there were 234,000 digestive-related deaths, including deaths from cancer in 2002.

Annually, there are some 600,000 gallbladder removals in the US! Fortunately, nearly all of these digestive disharmonies are preventable with the correct restorative natural support. Diseases linked to dysbiosis: Crohn’s disease, Ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, Ankylosing spondylitis, Graves disease, chronic active hepatitis, IBS, flatulent dyspepsia, chronic constipation and diarrhea, diverticular disease, gastrointestinal infections and intestinal overgrowth (candida), allergies (asthma and hay fever), poor immunity, chronic skin disorders, breast and colon cancer, insulin resistance and diabetes, low energy, obesity, neuropsychiatric problems especially autism, and lack of overall well being. Using Functional Nutrition, we work from the nervous system to the endocrines, from the respiratory system to the cardiovascular, from the musculoskeletal system to the lymphatic system, from the digestive system to immunity, and from mental health to brain function. We look at the function of the whole body versus the pathology of the different body parts.

You are what you absorb!

Good health comes from good food, yet even the highest quality organically-grown food fails in its health-building qualities if the whole food goodness does not reach our body tissues. Enzymes are the key to digestion, absorption and assimilation of nutrients that Nature intends for our health and vitality.

Good digestion and assimilation of nutrients is painless and quiet. In fact, with proper digestion you should eat a meal and not even be ware that your food is digesting.

With poor digestion, one feels distressed and aggravated, sometimes during the most often after the meal. More people than ever are taking medications such as ‘acid blockers’ so they don’t feel their poor digestive processes. People often are taking antacids, laxatives and medications to treat symptoms brought on by years of poor food choices an decreased enzyme production.

Myth or Truth?

Myth: osteoarthritis is pretty much a result of normal ‘wear and tear’ on joints. Truth: osteoarthritis is part of the autoimmune disease process –> which turns into decay –> which turns into degeneration.

What is the pathway of the autoimmune process?Disease –> dysfunction –> decay –> death….You can correct this reaction in your body! It’s not that there are so many autoimmune diseases; it’s that so many diseases reach the autoimmune PHASE.
