Your hormones are magical messengers responsible for keeping your body’s systems and functions in check. These little guys respond every second of everyday  to what is happening inside and outside of your body.  Unfortunately most of us are unaware of how important it is to choose what we put into our mouths, or onto our bodies carefully as everything is processed by the body. This means your body processes everything from your deodorant to your toothpaste, and every laundry detergent, shower wash, cleaning product etc in between. The health of your hormones are key to a healthful (disease-free) life! You require the proper functioning of your hormones for numerous functions within your body such as, monitoring your sugar levels, without which you would develop conditions like diabetes, they govern your menstrual cycle and enable you to conceive and have a healthy pregnancy, they play an important role in your metabolism, your ability to respond to stress, and your sleep cycle (plus much more).  With so many important roles to play in the health of our body and mind, it’s important that you treat your hormones with the respect they deserve. Unfortunately in response to the demands of modern day life such as over-work, over-exercise, over-fatigue and continuous exposure to stress and toxins our hormones are anything but happy. They start to send mix messages to our organs, causing them to misbehave which if not rectified can lead to the manifestation of illnesses such as diabetes, under or over active gland, obesity, PCOS, endometriosis, hormonal imbalance, cancer etc. Contact me to find our more about my Hormonal Health Program. 

There is a lot of confusion about the terms food intolerance and food allergy, and the differences between them. Many people think they have a food allergy when their symptoms can sometimes indicate food intolerance instead. Up to 45% of the population suffer from food intolerance* which, whilst not life threatening, can have a negative impact on many aspects of daily life. When foods and drinks are digested the proteins within them are broken down into smaller fragments for easy absorption into the body. Larger fragments can pass through without breaking down, and sometimes the body reacts to them as invaders, attacking them using antibodies called Immunoglobulin (IgG). This can cause inflammation and a wide range of symptoms including headaches, digestive problems, IBS, bloating, itchy skin, joint pain, weight gain and low mood to name a few. What tests are available? Lorisian, has over 30 years’ experience, specialising in laboratory tests that measure food triggers (food-specific IgG antibodies).  Our results offer a fast track or starting point for an elimination diet.  The tests are aimed at those that may have food intolerances†, and those who want to optimise their diets by avoiding any foods that they are reacting to.  Our aim is to promote wellbeing within the pressures of a modern lifestyle.Mindful Health offers 4 tests that offer different numbers of ingredients tested: Lorisian | 50 Analyses your IgG antibody reaction to 50 food ingredientsLorisian | 75 Analyses your IgG antibody reaction to 75 food ingredientsLorisian | 100 Analyses your IgG antibody reaction to 100 food ingredientsLorisian | 150 Analyses your IgG antibody reaction to 150 food ingredients
