Are all healthy foods good for you?
In short the answer is "No". For example milk, although a great source of calcium, can be harmful for some people, salad leaves, with all their important vitamins and minerals can cause problems for others, the yeast in bread can lead to food allergies. Certain foods can cause immune reactions in the body which will lead to chronic diseases

The immune system is an important mechanism, preventing infections caused by bacteria, viruses, fungus or parasites. However, with hypersensitivity, the body responds to the food, as a foreign substance, with a defense reaction, which will ultimately influence health and wellbeing. These reactions can be severe - causing swelling of lips and throat, violent and sudden skin rashes, breathing difficulty or even anaphylaxis, moderate - causing chronic illnesses or mild - causing some discomfort.

By identifying which foods are the culprits, allergy testing can dramatically improve your quality of life. The test is performed by collecting a small amount of blood which is analyzed by sophisticated instrumentation for IgG antibodies to particular foods (the number of foods tested for depends on which test you have chosen,. Raised levels of antibodies can be measured to tell whether you have a strong, moderate or no reaction to the foods.

Based on the results of your test, you should plan to eliminate those foods to which you have a strong reaction to and reduce your consumption to foods you have a moderate reaction to. Sometimes you may be able to reintroduce some of the foods in several months one by one determining which foods you are no longer a problem.

You will also be offered the option to have an individual diet plan personalized according to your test results. On top of the obvious health benefits of customizing the diet, an application study has shown that 400 patients lost an average of 7kg within 8 weeks and the success rate for chronic complaints was up to 80%.
