The truth about Food IntolerancesFood Intolerances can have a massive impact on our lives, causing many acute and chronic illnesses such as eczema, hayfever, IBS, fatigue, depression and inability to lose weight to name just a few. Often unsupported by medical practitioners our daily lives can be severely disrupted, leading to low self esteem and poor self confidence. Pin pointing Food Intolerances on our own can be a tricky business as many foods can affect us for up to 72hrs after ingestion and having the motivation to stick to an elimination eating plan in the vague hope of improvement is a difficult task.

A person has a food allergy or intolerance when their body produces antibodies against a certain food. These antibodies can be produced immediately, when a person can experience symptoms such as hives, shortness of breath, swelling of tongue, sneezing, wheezing etc. Other foods cause a slower reaction with some symptoms only emerging up to 72 hrs after the food has been ingested. Ongoing food intolerances can deplete the immune system, making you more susceptible to chronic and acute illnesses. They can affect the absorption and utilisation of food in the digestive system, creating vitamin and mineral deficiencies. They can affect people of all ages including babies who can be intolerant to substances passed through their mothers breast milk. They can be made worse during times of stress and dehydration, or can be caused by combinations of foods not just one single substance.
