  • HEADACHES
  • RASHES
  • DIARRHOEA

By removing certain foods from the diet and substituting others you may experience an improved sense of wellbeing and restored energy levels.

The ALLERGY SEASON tends to start early in the year with daffodils and tree pollens creating problems and carries on through to late autumn.
 
There are many DOG LOVERS out there and we need to find the dogs for people with allergies. There is not such a thing as an 'allergy free' dog as they all produce dander and it is this that causes all the problems. According to Dr Dawn Ruben the top breeds for people with allergies include breeds such as poodles, schnauzer, and terriers such as bedlington and kerry blue varieties.

Lorna's expert guidance will explain intolerances and how these come about, when a food could safely be reintroduced, how to maximize one's health and minimize the likelihood of further food intolerances.

Also… If preferred, Lorna can arrange a blood test to be carried out by Yorktest Laboratories. - The simple FIRST STEP FOOD SCAN INDICATOR TEST will provide you with a positive or negative result for as food intolerance.
