How Do Foods Cause Inflammation?
Food and food-chemical sensitivities are a highly complex category of non-allergic (non-IgE), non-celiac inflammatory reactions. They involve multiple mechanisms and may be governed by either innate or adaptive immune pathways. They’re one of the most important sources of inflammation and symptoms across a wide range of chronic inflammatory conditions. They are also one of the most clinically challenging.
Due to their inherent clinical and immunologic complexities, as well as a lack of general knowledge within conventional medicine of their role as a source of inflammation in IBS, migraine, fibromyalgia, arthritis, GERD, obesity, metabolic syndrome, ADD/ADHD, autism, etc., food and food-chemical sensitivities remain one of the most under addressed areas of conventional medicine.
MRT® simplifies a highly complex reaction and quantifies the inflammatory response to foods and food-chemicals by providing you with a list of inflammatory foods to avoid while your body heals.
Clear Signs You Need Food Sensitivity Testing...
- You have chronic digestive complaints (heartburn, reflux, constipation, gas, diarrhea, IBS...)
- You're doctors are stumped or make you feel like it's all in your head...
-
You'd like to try something other than medications to feel better...
- You have an autoimmune condition or inflammatory condition...
- You retain water and your weight fluctuates...
-
You experience brain fog, migraines or other neurological symptoms...
Why Mediator Release Testing®?
Functional Testing
- Quantifies inflammatory response to foods and food chemicals: Allowing you to know all of the foods contributing to inflammation.
- Accounts for clinical and subclinical inflammation: This encompasses all food/chemical induced inflammation causing both known and unknown inflammation.
-
Accounts for widest range of inflammatory pathways: An end point test, the MRT tests mediators and thereby covers a wide range of pathways causing you inflammation.
-
Capable of measuring both innate and adaptive pathways: The innate immune system is composed of physical and chemical barriers, phagocytic leukocytes, dendritic cells, natural killer cells, and plasma proteins whereas the adaptive immune system is composed of B cells and T cells. The MRT captures both pathways via the end-point testing process.
Highly Reliable Test
93.6%
Split sample reproducibility means this is the most accurate test for determining food sensitivities.
Relevant Information
- Gives information no other blood test can give: No other food sensitivity or blood test can provide as much usable information as the MRT®
- Identifies least and most reactive foods: Allowing you to know what foods are safe to eat in order to reduce inflammation and allow the body to heal.
-
Highest clinical utility: Due to it's high reliability, the MRT® provides practically usable information regardless of the condition or symptom.
