Food Sensitivities and Allergies Solutions
In this blog, we’re tackling food sensitivities and allergies head-on! Ever wondered why some people can handle various environments and foods with ease, while others react to the slightest exposure? Allergies and food sensitivities are increasingly affecting many people, significantly impacting their quality of life. So here we will dive into the key differences between allergies and sensitivities, uncover their common causes, and explore effective solutions for managing them.
Understanding The difference between Food Sensitivities and Allergies
Allergies: Allergies can be triggered by various factors like food, dust, and pollen, and often have rapid, severe consequences. Symptoms can include immediate reactions like hives, swelling of the lips, face, and eyes, difficulty breathing, and in extreme cases, anaphylaxis – a potentially life-threatening condition.
Food Sensitivities: Food sensitivities are generally less severe but can still cause discomfort and sometimes embarrassment. Symptoms like abdominal pain, bloating, gas, diarrhea, IBS, skin rashes, hives, mouth ulcers, fatigue and headaches are common with food sensitivities.
While both involve the immune system reacting to food, they do so in different ways and therefore, need different methods of management.
Identifying Causes of Food Sensitivities and Allergies
Immune System Dysfunction: At the heart of food sensitivities and allergies lies the immune system, a complex network designed to protect the body from harmful substances. Ideally, the immune system switches between various responses to tackle different threats. However, factors like chronic stress, which prolongs the fight-or-flight response, chemical and toxin exposure, aging, transitions through different life stages, and various lifestyle habits can profoundly affect our immune system. This can result in a range of immune dysfunctions, potentially triggering various health issues that may amplify progressively over time if not addressed.
Fundamental Causes Contributing to Allergies: True allergies are usually related to a TH2 immune response that gets stuck, leading to a whole range of health problems. When this happens certain microorganisms in your body such as parasites, candida, LPS, and mold can thrive. This in turn can cause many problems and imbalances, leading to unpleasant symptoms including the triggering of food sensitivities and allergies.
Major Contributors to Food Sensitivity Issues: Food sensitivities and intolerances are also often associated with a malfunctioning immune system as well, particularly when it becomes stuck in a TH17 immune response. External factors such as exposure to chemicals, including sensitivities to substances like glyphosate found in gluten or pesticides, also play a significant role. Additionally, an imbalanced gut microbiome and enzyme deficiencies are important factors to consider too.
Tackling Allergies & Intolerances at Their Roots to Prevent Multiple Sensitivities
When dealing with food sensitivities and allergies the instinctive approach is to avoid trigger foods or substances. While this works well for managing some permanent allergies, it’s not always the best long-term approach. If the root cause isn’t addressed, the underlying problem remains and can lead to even more health issues. This explains why people with allergies and intolerances frequently end up with multiple sensitivities, as the original problem is still there lurking in the background.
