A staple of the integrative, holistic approach,<a href=\"http:\/\/www.navacenter.com\/services\/services-overview\/food-allergy-sensitivity-intolerance\">\u00a0food sensitivity panels are a powerful tool in identifying the core factors behind an untold amount of chronic inflammation-based symptoms<\/a>: from GI pain, modest weight gain, constipation, headaches, joint pain, poor sleep quality, skin rashes, and asthma. For those new to the concept of food sensitivity testing, we\u2019ve identified the three most important things to know about this effective tool in reducing inflammation.<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"The_Difference_Between_Food_Sensitivity_and_Food_Allergy_8\"><\/a><strong>The Difference Between Food Sensitivity and Food Allergy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Most people are familiar with food allergies, which immediately induce a severe histamine response, and can be life-threatening. The body\u2019s reaction to a food sensitivity is much different: With a food sensitivity, you don\u2019t always experience symptoms immediately \u2014 the body\u2019s response can come hours or days later, making it difficult to pinpoint which food exactly is causing discomfort. The list of symptoms that can result from food sensitivity is incredibly long \u2014 and runs the gamut from physical discomfort to hormone imbalance, holding people back from feeling their best, losing weight, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Another key difference between a sensitivity and an allergy: It\u2019s possible to treat sensitivities. With allergies, generally, the only solution is avoiding the food altogether. With sensitivities, the body can potentially be \u201cretrained\u201d to tolerate a certain food after a period of eliminating it. You can actually heal the issue so that you can enjoy that food again.<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"Why_People_Experience_An_Immune_Response__How_We_Treat_It_At_Nava_18\"><\/a><strong>Why People Experience An Immune Response, &amp; How We Treat It At Nava<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If someone has a sensitivity, it means that their gut lining has become damaged and it\u2019s not healthy anymore. Antibiotics, stress, alcohol, overuse of Advil and Tylenol, pesticides on the food we eat can all contribute to the deterioration of the gut lining. A healthy gut\u2019s cells are tightly woven together, but a damaged gut has tiny, microscopic tears through which foods can pass through. The immune system treats them as a threat and reacts.<\/p>\n<p>Once we\u2019ve identified a food sensitivity, the first step of the Nava is to eliminate that food while we go to work to repair the gut lining. After food sensitivity testing, we treat with probiotics (good bacteria) and natural, non-prescription specifically geared to killing the overgrowth of fungus and yeast in the GI tract. Our GI Repair and Reset program does just that, so you can heal your system with natural anti-inflammatory nutrients and ultimately begin to reintroduce foods that previously upset your system.<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"How_Food_Sensitivity_Awareness_Can_Change_Your_Life_28\"><\/a><strong>How Food Sensitivity Awareness Can Change Your Life<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Nava has treated countless people for food sensitivities, and we\u2019ve heard time and time again that food sensitivity awareness and treatment has completely changed how our clients feel. The results of a food sensitivity panel contain powerful information that can solve innumerable symptoms, issues, and discomfort. Whether you suspect you have a food sensitivity, or just aren\u2019t feeling your best, our panel gets to the bottom of it by testing for more than 500 intolerances.<\/p>\n<p>Ready to find out for certain about any possible food sensitivities?
