After my lifestyle and diet changes I had a whole new view on life and my body! I knew deep down that my body should be cared for by the proper food/ nutrition, exercise, and proper mental outlook which lead me to go to see a Naturopath at a local office.
I quickly came to realize that traditional medicine was not always the right choice! For all of these years I lived with a stomach ache daily and my General Practitioner would always put me on some form of medicine and never looking for the actual cause of the stomach ache. The naturopath explained there was a reason that this was happening and that my body is just telling me something is imbalanced and not working correctly.
After a few visits we decided to have my food allergies tested. I went for 2 weeks eating all varieties of foods so the test would pick up readings for all areas of my diet. Once the test came back I found out I had allergies to Eggs, Wheat, Dairy, Soy, Butter, Garlic, and walnuts!?! I was shocked! This is what I ate the most of! When I looked up the symptoms of all of these food allergies I was experiencing a lot of them! What did I do once I found this out? I stopped eating these food items and everything that would have these items in them. I felt a MILLION times better and for once in my life my stomach never hurt.
I am 5 foot 9 and before I had my allergies tested I weighted 122 pounds. I was too skinny and even though I was eating like a horse I could never put any weight on. My body was not absorbing any of the nutrients I was giving it because all of the foods I was eating was wrong for me! Some people have the opposite effect they actually will store extra weight that they can not get rid of as hard as they try. This is just all of the toxins from the improper food in your system. Once I changed my diet I actually put some healthy weight on and I was able to gain muscle! I did not eat any of these foods for over a year……not one bite of them. I did start to feel like I was limiting myself and becoming quite paranoid.
I googled how to eliminate or cure food allergies and I found an
Acupuncturist who does a procedure called NAET which eliminates your food allergies!
I was super excited to start this journey! You can read all about NAET on the
NAET site. NAET is basically a natural way to eliminate your allergies by using a blend of selective energy balancing, testing and treatment procedures from acupuncture/acupressure, allopathy, chiropractic, nutritional, and kinesiological disciplines of medicine. Since I have gone through my NAET treatments I have eliminated all of my allergies and feel great! I can everything without getting a tummy ache now!!!
Many people believe it is normal to live with headaches, illness, backaches etc daily. My belief is we should not be living like this and we should not be in discomfort or pain! Food allergies are a major cause in why you can be experiencing these symptoms daily.
Do you have food allergies? If so, how do you deal with them? Let us know!
Live Well,
Kris

OMG!! i LOVE NAET! I saw a practitioner who does this last year! it seriously was the best thing and probably the only thing out of everything i tried that seriously worked for me!!
She taught me to do this weird thing with my fingers to test whether the food makes me weak or not (u take the middle finger and thumbs and touch them together.. but link both hands first so u create a chain) then when u think of the food u want to eat you try to pull apart your fingers.. if they dont pull apart the food is good.. if u get weak and they pull apart it mean ur sensitive to it. cool huh!! mean u can test allergies and food when ur on the go or out in public!
btw. i got the bar from Lauren for our gift exchange. she got them in Toronto. I wish we had them out here tho!! I used to have to order them at the GlutenFreeMall.com
