Food Intolerance

We Offer Food Intolerance Testing in Townsville

Testing & Dietary Advice

Do certain foods make you feel uncomfortable or sick? Having a hard time narrowing down which foods are the culprit? Speak with the team at All Body Holistic Health. We offer testing, as well as nutrition and dietary advice at our Townsville clinic.

A food intolerance often occurs from irritation and inflammation in the digestive tract. This can be caused by poor integrity of the gut lining, changes in the gut flora or an inability to breakdown certain proteins and sugars like gluten or lactose. The good news is that these problems can be easily identified and corrected with herbal medicine and homeopathic treatments, along with nutritional and lifestyle advice.

A food intolerance can manifest in several different ways. That’s why we offer hair testing and elimination diets to help identify food intolerances. It is estimated that 45% of the population has a food intolerance. So, it is important to get checked. Book yourself in for an appointment today.

Some symptoms of a food intolerance can appear quite vague, while others can manifest in extreme and direct ways. That’s why it is crucial to receive a correct diagnosis. If you’re experiencing any of the above conditions, get in touch with our practitioners today for assistance.

About Our Services

We offer different testing methods to identify food intolerances. The elimination diet involves completely removing any suspect foods from your diet until you stop experiencing symptoms. Our practitioners will then advise you to reintroduce the suspect foods, one at a time. Although this process can be time-consuming, it can help you pinpoint which foods are causing you to feel ill. You might be asked to keep a diary to record what you eat and your symptoms during this test.

We also offer hair testing in the clinic. Don’t be alarmed, we won’t leave you with a distasteful haircut. Instead, our practitioners will ask you to provide a small sample of your hair to be sent off to the lab. Whichever test you undergo is entirely up to you. If you have any questions, please call us on 0473 102 348 .
