Functional Nutrition & Food Sensitivities
Food allergies and food sensitivities are abnormal responses to a food component triggered by the immune system in the form of immunoglobulins (IgE, IgG, IgA), representing either an immediate or delayed response. By collecting this data, Dr. Tiffany creates an anti-inflammatory diet based on your specific immune response, to aid in identifying root causes and resolution of patient symptoms.
Identification and treatment of food sensitivities is one aspect of Dr. Tiffany’s Functional nutrition approach. Functional nutrition is the practice of considering every aspect of one's health, diet, and overall lifestyle when providing nutrition recommendations. This allows for a multi-system approach to “food as medicine” that interconnects every part of the body.
