ADD/ADHD food allergies summation





Again, this is the visual for leaky gut. Food particles can escape into your body through microscopic tears in your gut. Your body sees these food particles only as foreigners to be fought. ADD/ADHD symptoms are often lessened if not completely eliminated by treating leaky gut correctly. This includes eliminating the offending food allergens and resupplying the gut with correct micro flora (probiotics like lactobacillus).

There are many medical laboratories that do food allergy testing, via the blood, for both IgG and IgE (immediate and delayed responses). Your natural health care practitioner, be he or she a chiropractor, acupuncturist, naturapathic doctor, or medical doctor, will order these tests for you from a lab they find reputable and who they get the best prices from. If you do not yet have a holistic health care practitioner, and you think you or your child may have food allergens, click on these websites to find health care practitioners near you that use their companies. http://www.gdx.com (Genova labs) and http://www.usbiotek.com

You know, neither Barbra or I thought we would be able to stick to the elimination diet, but we did. We didn't think Atlantis would be able to stick to the elimination diet, particularly when away from home, away from Mom, but she did. Why? Because off of the food allergens, you feel better physically and mentally. And once you feel that way, you don't ever want to go back.

Good Luck!
