There is an increasing amount of people experieincing food intolerances. Currently approximately 20% of the population in industrialised countries suffer from a food intolerance or food allergy. In Australia, it is expected by 2050 that 70% of the population will be affected by an allergic disease.

There are numerous reasons why food intolerances are on the rise including:

1. Increase in consumption of processed food
2. Increase in genetically modified crops
3. Increased use of herbicides and pesticides on crops
4. Overuse of hand sanitisers
5. Increase C-section births
6. Decrease in breastfeeding
7. Enzyme deficiency
8. Disruption to the gut microbiome due to

• Antibiotic use
• Overconsumption of processed food
• Under consumption of fresh vegetables
• Overconsumption of sugar
• Parasites, yeast and bacterial infections
• Low hydrochloric acid (can be due to lack on animal protein intake, overuse of PPIs such as Nexium and low zinc)
• Stress!!!!
• SIBO (can be due to low bile acids and MTHFR/methylation issues)
• Chronic constipation

     9. Altered gut permeability due to:

• All of the above for gut microbiome
• Gluten intolerance will drive this
• Low secretory IgA (a physical mucus layer that protects the gut)
• Chronic low zinc levels (pyrroles)

Naturopath Sydney understands that one of the main health issues caused by food intolerance is eczema. When the body is experiencing a reaction to foods, it releases histamine and inflammatory cytokines that cause eczema. Naturopath Eczema treatment involves the removal of foods that trigger ezcema along with healing of the gut to improve a patient’s long term tolerance to these foods.

Another health issue caused by food intolerances is acne. Naturopath Sydney Acne treatment follows similar protocols for eczema treatment, whereby the foods that trigger acne are removed from the diet whilst gut healing and hormonal balancing is undertaken to achieve optimal results. Several Naturopath Acne treatment centers are available online that help to provide best cure for your problem.
