bigstock-Allergy-Symptoms-Flat-Style-Co-102527282With the holidays in full swing, it is possible that many of you are experiencing new symptoms of potential food allergies. Symptoms of food allergies are much broader than one might think. 

Symptoms include:

  • Abdominal pain/cramps
  • Bloating
  • Tingling/itching in the mouth
  • Metallic taste in mouth
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
  • Wheezing
  • Swelling of the tongue
  • Trouble swallowing
  • Dizziness
  • Weak pulse/drop in blood pressure
  • Symptoms of shock such as skin rash (hives) and flushed skin
  • Anaphylaxis which can be life threatening

Keep in mind your food allergies are changing all the time and while the holidays are lovely, we are all consuming more foods than usual which makes it very likely that if you're experiencing any of these symptoms you may have a new food allergy. At Second Nature Care we offer an array of services that can help diagnose and treatments to heal food allergies. These services include detailed bloodwork to identify both environmental and food allergies. We find foods that you may not be allergic to but may cause inflammatory responses in your system. We offer custom oral immunotherapy remedies that are safe and cost effective. These remedies desensitize the individual which prevents both immune and inflammatory responses.
