Eat foods without fear! In this episode Angela makes a clear distinction between food intolerances and food allergies. She explains simply the different immune reactions we can experience from foods including IgG, IgA, IgE and leucocyte reactions which can be responsible for a wide range of symptoms including: 

• fatigue
• skin reactions
• eczema
• IBS symptoms (gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation etc)
• nausea
• and much more!

She shows us how we can test for these intolerances and also how we can heal our gut so that we don't have to live with food intolerances forever. This is a practical episode that will help you and your loved ones have a happy, healthy gut and eventually be able to eat foods without fear!

Are there any biochemical or neurological reactions involved that could be keeping us stuck in bad habits and stop us from making healthy choices? Angela uncovers all this and more in this episode. She explains some of the nutritional deficiencies that can create common food cravings like chocolate, sugar and salty foods. She sheds light on the role of adrenals and thyroid in diet and weight loss as well as the impact of neurotransmitters on carbohydrate cravings and impulsive tendencies. This show will empower you to take back control over your choices and your health.
