Many people suffer from some kind of allergy or intolerance. Modern diets, farming methods, and increase in processed foods along with imbalances in our gut bacteria have all contributed to a variety of allergies. These can manifest in a variety of symptoms from skin and digestive issues, to low energy and weight gain. Some people experience symptoms such as ‘brain fog’, difficulty concentrating or headaches and find it hard to identify the cause which can be frustrating and limiting.
Our registered Nutritional Therapist – Gerri O’Mara offers a variety of tests that can help you to identify allergies and intolerances. As a Nutritional Therapist Gerri takes a holistic approach to helping you improve your health and well-being. It is vital to look at the whole picture and focus on the root cause of the problem rather than just the symptoms. When working with allergies and intolerances Gerri may use specific testing or food elimination to help identify the problem.
Any allergy tests are easy to perform at home and require just a blood spot sample that is sent to be analysed. Gerri will talk through all the results with you and put together a personalised diet plan to help you avoid any foods which are likely to exacerbate your symptoms and replace them with appealing and practical alternatives.
If you suspect you may have an allergy or would like more information on these or any other tests that Gerri can offer then please get in contact.
