Ladies and Gentleman I want to talk a little bit about food that triggers your immune system. Our bodies are each invidivual, our insides are just as different as our outsides. This is why standard diets and diets you read about in health magazines do not work for everyone.
Food that triggers our immune system that we may have an intollerance to cause antigens in the body which result in inflammation and visceromotor ad viscerosensory reflexes. Now that basically means a contraction of muscles of the thorax or abdomen in response to a stimulus, in this case the food you are eating. This inflammatory response by the body causes the gut to become leaky and the immune system is overrun by antigens. Now what causes this gut to become leaky?
Anti-inflammatory drugs, stress, and alcohol.
Now when I say alcohol I am typically referring to those times when you go out to dinner on an empty stomach and drink alcohol before a meal. Alcohol then converts to sugar and is digested in the mouth and the stomach. (this is one of the reasons it i a carrier for medical drugs as it delivers them quickly into your system).
These triggers then cause the tight walls of the gut to open and undigested food particles are passed through from the intestines. If traffic becomes so big that the liver cannot handle it, it gets settled into your joints which then causes the knee, low back and wrist pain wich are the ever so common primary pains today.
We take drugs to cure the inflammation and the inflammation gets worse and is a bi-product of the immune complexes that the liver cannot process, settling down in the joints. Now if too many immune complexes get into the body the immune system gets shut down.
When the gut works right you see people's skin clears up. Food allergies lead to inflammation of the capillary beds of the skin. The capillaries leak and water diffuses out into the tissues. Around the fat cells there is collagen holding the fat in place and when you get too much water in the intrasticial spaces it swells the tissues up. This then leads to the muscles and skeletal system above those tissues to become dysfunctional which leads to a whole host of problems.
Now you can understand why treating people on a cellular level, the inside as well as the outside is so important.
One of the reasons i promote the 10 day cleanse that I offer is because you can cleanse the leaky gut and free it from any food intollerances allowing you to start fresh and rotate your foods. You may have heard me talk before about food rotation diets I help put my clients on after we have done assessments to proper understand their metabolic type and what foods work for them. Once the gut is cleansed you can really start to pay attention to the food you eat and what foods you may be intollerant to.
