Food allergens are substances present in foods that can trigger an allergic reaction when they are consumed, including commonly eaten foods such as nuts (peanuts and tree nuts), milk, eggs, wheat, soy, fish, and shellfish. Elevated levels of IgE can be observed when the body overreacts to these typically harmless foods. This type of allergic […]
Q: Would this test reveal perturbations in thiamine status (sufficiency/deficiency, function, other), and if so — how? A: Only as a reflection of lactic acid levels, and certain markers within the Amino Acid Metabolites (#62-#66). Q: Would this test reveal perturbations in ALDEHYDE metabolism? Can it distinguish between exogenous exposure; excess endogenous formation; triggering […]
Q: Is fungal sinusitis a mold problem? A: Mold is a type of fungus, so if there is mold in the sinuses then it would be a cause of fungal sinusitis. Q: Can one beat it with a nasal spray alone as opposed to a whole-body approach? A: Yes, this is possible if the […]
Join us as we explore the intriguing connection between Pediatric Neuropsychiatric Disorder Associated with Streptococcus (PANDAS), autoimmunity, and autism in this informative webinar. Dr. Woeller will discuss the latest research and clinical insights on the role of streptococcus infections in triggering neuropsychiatric symptoms in children, including anxiety, OCD, tics, and other behavioral issues. Gain a […]
In this webinar, we delve into the crucial link between rheumatoid arthritis and digestive problems. Discover how bowel toxicity and infections can contribute to the development and exacerbation of rheumatoid arthritis. Gain insights into the role of gut dysbiosis, leaky gut syndrome, and chronic infections in triggering immune responses that contribute to joint inflammation and […]
In this informative webinar, Dr. Greenblatt will visit the fascinating topic of inflammation and its role in neuropsychiatric illness. You’ll gain a deep understanding of the complex relationship between inflammation and conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other neuropsychiatric disorders. Our speakers will discuss the latest research and evidence on how inflammation can […]
Kurt Woeller, DO shares information about Candida albicans, the most commonly encountered human fungal pathogen that is frequently found in the digestive tract, and why host defense is dependent upon a finely tuned implementation of innate and adaptive immune responses. SUMMARY: Candida albicans is the most commonly encountered human fungal pathogen and is frequently found on […]
SUMMARY: In this presentation, James Neuenschwander, M.D., reviews some tell-tale signs of mold illness. He discusses the mechanisms by which mold toxins make patients ill and how a MycoTOX Profile helps identify these factors. Dr. Neuenschwander also provides practical protocols to remove patient barriers to healing of those suffering from mold or chronic illnesses. Before […]
William Shaw, PhDIMCJ Integrative Medicine • Vol. 16, No. 1 • February 2017 Abstract Context: Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder for which a number of genetic, environmental, and nutritional causes have been proposed. Glyphosate is used widely as a crop desiccant and as an herbicide in fields of genetically modified foods that are glyphosate resistant. Several […]
ABSTRACT: Context-Certain compounds found by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in urine samples of children with autism might be produced by yeast in the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, treatment with antifungal drugs might reduce clinical symptoms of autism. ObjectiveTo determine if symptoms of autism and chemical compounds in urine samples of children with autism decreased after antifungal treatment. […]
Every day we are exposed to toxins from our environment. We may ingest lead and copper from drinking water, phosphate from processed food and soda, various synthetic chemicals from plastic food containers, and pesticides from fruits and vegetables. Both natural heavy metals and man-made chemicals disrupt hormones and brain development. The brain, especially the developing […]
It is well known that our food choices play a role in our long-term physical health. It is less recognized that nutrition can have profound effects on our mental health and our behavior. Overall, malnutrition in childhood can affect the brain throughout the lifespan, while specific food components can affect our short-term well-being. Sugar, wheat, […]
