How Food Sensitivity Testing Changed My Life -And Can Change Yours

For most of my life, I had no idea that what I was eating was basically fueling a one-woman circus of health problems. Growing up in the Midwest, my diet was 90% dairy, processed food, and sugar. (If it came in a box or had a cartoon character on the front, you can bet I was eating it.)

Like many people, I thought feeling bloated, breaking out, and needing a nap after every meal was just… life. As a kid, I had constant ear infections and ADD. In my teens, it was acne, migraines, and heavy periods. By my 20s and 30s? Oh boy. Anxiety, depression, weight gain, more migraines than I could count, and a stomach that was basically a balloon animal.

When I went to the doctor for help, the solution was always another prescription. Never once did my doctors talk to me about food sensitivities. Testing for food sensitivities was not even on my radar.

At one point, I was on 11 medications, nine of them psych meds. Eleven! I didn’t know if I was treating my health or auditioning to be a walking pharmacy. And spoiler alert: the side effects were worse than the original issues. I had no quality of life, and honestly, I felt hopeless. At my lowest, I lost all hope and even attempted suicide, which landed me in the ICU and months of psychiatric care. Not exactly the wellness plan I had in mind.

But then something unexpected happened. I met a health coach who asked me one simple question: “Have you thought about what you’re eating?” Honestly, no. I thought “eating” was just part of life and everyone had stomach aches after eating. But I gave it a try and within two months of changing my diet, I was off every single medication I had been chained to for seven years. Mind. Blown. 🤯

My face in 2009. This was a combination of food sensitivities and medications.

The Missing Piece: Food Sensitivities

Here’s what I learned: food sensitivities aren’t the same as allergies, but they can totally wreck your life. Bloating, fatigue, joint pain, skin breakouts, brain fog, headaches  -yep, food sensitivities can be behind all of it.

And sometimes the foods we think are healthy are the ones silently messing with us. (Kale, I’m looking at you. Just kidding. Kind of.) The good news? Once you know what your body is sensitive to and heal your gut, many foods can actually make a comeback later.

Why I Love Hair Testing for Food Sensitivities

When people come to me with chronic illness, autoimmune issues, pain, or just that “I feel awful but don’t know why” vibe, I recommend Bioresonance Hair Testing. Why? Because it’s way better than guessing or spending months playing food detective.

With just a small hair sample, you get insights into how your body responds to:  🥗 Foods & drinks  💊 Vitamins & minerals  🌿 Botanicals & additives  ⚡ Metals & environmental factors  🧠 Hormones, gut health & digestion 

✨ Skin, stress, sleep & overall nutrition

It’s like your body’s wellness fingerprint that is unique to you, packed with info, and way easier to read than your last lab report. And the best part? No needles, no doctor’s office waiting rooms, no mystery bills showing up later.

Why This Matters

Gut health is the foundation of everything: digestion, mood, hormones, energy, even your skin. Once you uncover hidden sensitivities, you finally get the power to make changes that stick.

I’ve seen clients reduce inflammation, clear up brain fog, lose stubborn weight, balance their hormones, improve their skin, and actually enjoy eating again, all because they stopped fighting blind and started listening to their bodies. And trust me, if it worked for me, the girl who once thought Pop-Tarts counted as breakfast,  it can work for you too.

Your Next Step In Hair Testing

You don’t have to keep guessing what’s making you feel awful. And you definitely don’t have to do it alone. Although you don’t need to be one of my coaching clients to order a kit, I’d love to guide you through it so making changes feels easy and maybe even fun. (Yes, fun. I promise gut health doesn’t have to be boring!)
