Food Sensitivity Testing

Mediator release is the direct cause of multiple symptoms experienced in immune mediated food chemical sensitivities. The MRT (Mediator Release Test) accurately isolates which specific foods and/or additives provoke any form of non-IgE mediated hypersensitivity reactions.  It is a common end-point, whole blood assay.

This new test is patented and based on an innovative method of measurement of blood components, previously not possible.  These non IgE mediated reactions cause release of pro-inflammatory and pain causing mediators throughout all organ systems and then systemically throughout the body, creating multiple symptoms.

Examples of these symptoms include:  chronic headaches, fatigue, muscle & joint pain, diarrhea or constipation, sinus problems, bloating, gas and other gastrointestinal issues.

This situation is often described by clients as feeling “lousy” at best and “horrible” at worst, all the time.  People who have been diagnosed with other allergies, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, and migraine headaches especially benefit from MRT testing and the holistic lifestyle coaching.

MRT Testing has also shown food sensitivity issues in persons who also have autism, ADD, arthritis, GERD, chronic cough, sinusitis, insomnia, and weight imbalances.  MRT testing and holistic lifestyle coaching have been successful in helping world class athletes perform at their best.

In addition, the most common tests used to help identify sensitive foods can’t identify reactions to food-chemicals and can only detect one lesser kind of sensitivity reaction (Type 3, which covers only 25% of food sensitivity reactions).
