FOOD SENSITIVITIES:  Amy Myers, MD

Amy Myers is a functional medicine MD.

Here’s an url to her site–which at the moment is featuring 10 signs of food sensitivities.

I used to be totally incapacitated with seasonal allergies–that started to be year round.  Bummer.

But when I began to make the connections between certain foods I was eating and stopped eating them, the seasonal allergies went away.

I don’t really have them any more–or not the streaming eyes, blowing nose version.  (I do have heightened sensitivities in the early spring that certain foods can trigger–foods I can eat just fine the rest of the year.)

I will say that I also work with a homeopath and have for about 10 years now, and I know she has made a huge difference in my constitutional health.  (I don’t seem to get poison ivy any more, for instance.)

The Functional Approach to Preventing the Flu

 

In Camden, Maine, today, there were signs advertising flu shots outside the grocery store and the drug store.

So, it’s “flu shot” season again.

Flu shots are BIG business and enormously profitable.

 

Amy Myers MD is part of the growing movement toward functional medicine–which seeks to find the causes of illness rather than just treating symptoms.

I signed up for Dr. Myers’ blog posts.  Today’s was on the flu shot.

Take a look?  Take a look BEFORE you get a flu shot.  Please.  For one thing, you can see what’s in the flu shot before you allow those ingredients into your body.
