Digestion, Immunity & Whole-Body
Something you are eating does not agree with you, and elimination diets have hinted at it without ever naming it.
How we approach it
A sensitivity is not an allergy, and the difference matters. An allergy is an immediate immune response and it needs medical management. A sensitivity is slower, often delayed by hours, frequently dose-dependent, and much harder to spot from the plate — which is why elimination diets so often narrow what someone eats without ever producing an answer. The work here is identification rather than avoidance: finding what is actually driving the reaction, understanding whether it is the food itself or how well it is being digested, and then rebuilding the diet outward instead of continuing to cut. Some people find the picture changes once digestion or gut flora is addressed, because a food that causes trouble in one state causes none in another. If anything you describe sounds like a true allergy, we will send you for proper allergy testing rather than working around it here.
Where people usually start
Which of these makes sense depends on what the first conversation turns up. You do not have to choose one now.
The main door for this — identification rather than another round of elimination.
Gut and inflammatory markers, to see whether digestion itself is part of the reaction.
Rebuilding the diet outward once you know what you are actually dealing with.
Supporting the pathways that process what the body is reacting to.
An allergy is an immediate immune response and needs medical management — that is not what we do. A sensitivity is slower, often delayed by hours and frequently dose-dependent, which is exactly why it is so hard to identify from how you feel.
Often, yes, and that is usually the goal. Whether a food is a permanent problem or one your system currently cannot handle is a real distinction, and it is worth finding out which you are dealing with.
Bring it in. Long positive lists are common and need interpreting rather than acting on wholesale — a result is a starting point for a conversation, not a shopping list.
Not sure this is the right page?
Most people arrive with a symptom rather than a service in mind, and more than one of these pages will often sound familiar. That is normal — the concerns overlap because the body does. Browse all fifteen, or just call and describe it. You do not have to arrive with the right words.
