If you still do asks, (you can say no!), but could I request a Mm something with the different Papas taking care of/comforting reader who deals with digestive issues?

(I deal with GERD, acid reflux and some days I literally get symptoms/pain so bad I just curl up and don’t wanna do anything 🥺)

Hi darling! I do asks of course! It might take me a bit to write them because I don’t have much free time lately but I get them done in the end.

I am so so sorry you have to deal with that... to (hopefully) make you feel better here you have the Papas taking care of a reader that deals with digestive issues.

(I tried to make this as GN as possible, hope you don’t mind, I wasn’t sure if you were asking for a m/m relationship so I didn’t want to risk it.)

I. Primo

- Primo is an old man, that we know, but with age there also comes wisdom. He is no stranger to chronic pains or illnesses. His experience has taken him to create what most siblings of sin and even his brothers consider to be the most infallible methods to fight any sickness or health disruptions.

- For sure he has also dealt with gastrointestinal issues, not all foods that he eats stay the same in his stomach as when he was younger. Nonetheless, he has learned what things to avoid.

- Primo had helped you in the past, to the point of considering each other very close, even intimate. You had tried everything he had suggested to you previously, but lately your pain had become unbearable, you needed something else.

- When you come to his quarters in search of a “magical cure” for your pain, skin pale and glossy eyes, he leaves everything that he is doing in that moment to take care of you.

- He doesn’t want you to move an inch so he lets you sleep on his bed. He lends you one of his sleeping gowns, big, long and fresh so you feel all the comfort.

- Before that however, Primo makes you dinner in his private kitchenette. He knows the importance of an appropriate diet when dealing with those sorts of problems. His go to “remedy” is water with non-citrus fruits, he will add whichever fruit you prefer. He will also make you whichever food you might want (but it need to be appropriate for your condition so mostly salads or oats).

-Primo will make you sit on his lap and will feed you small bits so you can digest your food properly, whispering how good you are doing and telling you that you will feel better soon. With the dinner he also gives you one of his most potent remedies, one that also makes you sleepy.

-You need to stay awake for a bit making your digestion before going to bed so Primo will ask for you to tell him how your day was or any anecdote that comes to mind. He will listen attentively drawing circles on your back until you fall asleep in his arms, finally taking you to his bed for a good night of rest.

II. Secondo

-Secondo doesn’t know much about gastrointestinal issues. He smokes, drinks and eats all types of food and in such quantities that if done by any normal person it would leave them in a comatose state.

-However, when you come to him in search of comfort, he will research everything he can about your condition and how to make you feel better.

-He is hesitant about helping you because he considers himself to be a bit of a brute, but seeing you in such state gives him the courage to try his best.

-Secondo will follow down to the t every single tip he finds online. Whatever food might help you he will cook, whatever medicine might make you feel better he will go and find.

-If you cannot move much he will carry you anywhere and help you with whichever task: showering, bathing, brushing your hair, whatever you might need.

-Like Primo, he will carry you to his own bed to rest, hugging you, a pillow between you two, pressed on your stomach to alleviate as much pain as possible.

-If by any chance you wake up in the middle of the night with pain or in need to vomit he will be by your side, pressing a cold towel to your forehead, rubbing your back and arms in slow motions which makes your blood move.

-He will reassure you that everything will be fine, that he is not going anywhere and that the pain will pass.

-You believe him of course, how could you not when he smiles at you so warmly and with such confidence. His positiveness rubs on you and some of the pain fades away.

-The rest of the night you sleep soundly in his arms.

III. Terzo

-Poor Terzo doesn’t know what to do to help you, so he calls Omega to carry you around.

-He goes to Primo for help. Terzo bursts in first, screaming pleads with exaggerated stereotypical Italian hand motions. If you were not in such pain you would surely laugh at his antics.

-Omega is very tender with you, he moves slowly so as to not make you feel worse.

-Primo instructs Terzo in what to do, how to make you feel better and what medicines might be the best.

-If Primo told him 5 medicines that might help you, Terzo is going to get the five of them.

-As instructed by Terzo, Omega will carry you to Terzo’s bed after you have taken your medicine.

-They will let you sleep as much as you want and if you ask, both of them will join you in your slumber.

-Your body will be pressed against Terzo’s and Omega’s chests. You would feel like a cat nested in a fort of pillows, thankful for all the contact and pressure.

-The attention makes you forget most of your pain, only leaving the usual reflex. When those occur, Terzo will squeeze you tighter, signing Italian lullabies to you until you go back to sleep, safe and sound next to him.

IV. Copia

-Like Terzo, Copia is stressed™ at seeing you in pain.

-He sweeps you off your feet and takes you to the infirmary in a rush. He almost trips a couple of times and he got lost a few times also, which wasn’t the best for your condition but he apologized profusely every time something happened that made you wince.

-He rushes every nurse there to get you anything that might help.

-The nurses can’t help but roll their eyes at how stressed he is. He is making such a fuzz that the nurses threaten him with kicking him out if he does not behave.

-The nurses recommend that you stay the night in the infirmary, so of course Copia is going to stay with you.

-He takes an armchair and places it next to your bed.

-To make you feel better he sneaks in one of his rats for you to pet and cuddle with.

-As he feels you drifting off because of the medicine, he will also try to sleep in his chair, his hand extended to hold yours during the entirety of the night.

-If at any point you wake up in pain or in need to vomit, just like Secondo, Copia will be there for you, helping you in any way possible.

-After that he will even join you in the very small infirmary bed, holding you close, rubbing your stomach so as to try to ease your pain.

- You drift off to the feeling of loving kisses on the back of your neck, feeling so much better.

Hope this could help a bit, also hope you get better soon darling, lots of love to you🖤

The Many Benefits of a 2-Day Juice Fast: Rejuvenate Your Body and Mind

In our fast-paced, hectic lives, it’s essential to take a break and give our bodies the chance to reset and recharge. One effective way to do this is through a 2-day juice fast. 

While some may associate fasting with deprivation, a juice fast can be a refreshing and revitalizing experience with numerous health benefits.

In this blog, we’ll explore the many advantages of embarking on a 2-day juice fast.

1. Detoxification:

One of the primary benefits of a juice fast is detoxification. By consuming only fresh fruit and vegetable juices, you allow your body to flush out toxins and impurities, promoting overall well-being.

2. Weight Loss:

Juice fasting can be a gentle way to kickstart weight loss. Since you’re consuming fewer calories while still getting essential nutrients, your body may start burning stored fat for energy.

3. Increased Energy:

Surprisingly, many people report increased energy levels during a juice fast. This boost in vitality can be attributed to the easily digestible nutrients found in fresh juices.

4. Mental Clarity:

A 2-day juice fast can also clear the mental fog. Many participants report enhanced mental clarity and focus, making it an excellent choice for a productivity boost.

5. Improved Digestion:

Giving your digestive system a break from solid foods allows it to rest and repair. This can lead to better digestion and reduced gastrointestinal discomfort.

6. Enhanced Hydration:

Fresh juices are an excellent source of hydration. Staying well-hydrated is essential for overall health and can leave your skin looking more radiant.

7. Glowing Skin:

The vitamins and antioxidants in fruit and vegetable juices can work wonders for your skin. Expect a radiant complexion after your juice fast.

8. Better Immune Function:

The nutrient-rich juices can bolster your immune system, providing your body with the vitamins and minerals it needs to fend off illnesses.

9. Reduced Inflammation:

Juice fasting may help reduce inflammation in the body, which can be beneficial for those dealing with chronic conditions related to inflammation.

10. Reset Unhealthy Eating Habits:

A 2-day juice fast can act as a reset button for unhealthy eating habits. It allows you to break free from cravings for processed foods and sugar.

11. Emotional Well-being:

Fasting can have a positive impact on your emotional well-being. It can help you gain control over your relationship with food and promote mindful eating.

12. Promotes Self-Discipline:

Successfully completing a 2-day juice fast requires self-discipline and determination, which can spill over into other areas of your life.

A 2-day juice fast is a short-term commitment with long-term benefits. It can help detoxify your body, boost your energy, and promote overall well-being. However, it’s essential to consult with a medical doctor before embarking on any fasting regimen, especially if you have underlying health conditions. When done safely and mindfully, a juice fast can be a powerful tool to rejuvenate your body and mind.

5 Tips to Keep Your Dog Warm in the Winter

Invest in doggy outerwear - sweaters, hoodies, jackets, vests, even shoes! There's a whole market of pet clothing nowadays. One of our favorite brands of K9 outerwear is Canada Pooch

It's important to note that not every dog's coat may be enough to keep them warm in the winter - especially puppies, small or hairless breeds, elderly dogs, or those with health issues. Just like with people, pets' cold tolerance can vary based on their coat, body fat stores, activity level, and health. Pets with heart disease, kidney disease, or metabolic diseases like diabetes and Cushing's might also have a harder time regulating their body temperatures. 

Protect your dog's paws when it's snowing. Boots can help minimize contact with the ground and prevent snow and ice from getting lodged between their toes and causing frostbite. Like chapped lips, cracked paws can be annoying and painful, and built up snow and ice can irritate their sensitive skin between their toes.

It might feel awkward at first for some dogs, so try to use positive reinforcement as they try to adjust to wearing their boots. Offer high-reward treats so they can learn to associate good things with their boots - when the boots are on, good things are going to happen! :)

If boots still don't feel right for your dog, you can try applying paw balm or petroleum jelly-based products like Musher's Secret to keep your dog's paws safe and moisturized.

Just always be sure to wipe down and clean your dog's paws thoroughly with with a warm cloth when they come back inside. Sometimes salt and anti-freeze are put on sidewalks and driveways, which can cause chemical burns on your pet's paw pads or gastrointestinal issues if they try to lick it off.

Limit their time outdoors. Winter walks aren't always so magical. Know your dog's limits and shorten their walks if needed. If you can, reserve walks for the warmest parts of the day.

Signs to tell if your dog is too cold: - Shaking, shivering, or trembling - Hunched posture with tail-tucking - Slowing down or reluctant to walk/move - Lifting their paws off the ground - Whining or barking - Ears and nose feel very cold to the touch Even if you decide to leave your dog in the car while you run an errand, it can still be dangerous if they are left for too long without any heat support when its below 30 degrees F outside. While cars can trap blazing temperatures in the summer and open risk for heatstroke, they can also trap freezing temperatures in the winter and open risk for hypothermia. Perhaps try to sit in your car without a jacket and see how long you can bare waiting in there without the heater on.

Provide choices! Give your dog more options for comfortable sleeping places with varying levels of bedding and blankets, in case they need to change their location for more or less warmth.

Set up cozy, wet-proof areas outdoors with heating lamps and wind barriers. Make sure kennels and igloos/houses are well-insulated and have enough space for them to walk in, turn around, and comfortably lay in.

Unless you have a healthy conditioned sled dog, I would not recommend letting them spend the night outdoors in the snow, without proper shelter and heat support. Watch how cold it can get in a simple dog house:

Serve warm food and water. At minimum, aim to make sure whatever they consume is at room temperature - but preferably just above their body temperature (101-103 F) when it's especially cold. Warming their food will also bring out their aroma and make it more enticing for them to eat. If feeding kibble/dry or dehydrated, you can mix in some warm bone broth. If it's canned/wet food, avoid microwaving for too long, as this can make the food too hot and potentially deplete its nutrients. Instead, try warming up your dog's wet food with this technique:

As for home-cooked/fresh food, the Balance It Canine Plus supplement not only makes your dog's complete and balanced, but is actually formulated to withstand reheating/microwaving. Our personal favorite! Below is a tutorial on how to utilize the Balance It system:

When selecting ingredients for your dog's food in the winter, consider including "warming" foods according to TCVM food energetics. Examples of these would be meats like lamb, goat, or venison, and vegetables and starches like sweet potatoes and oats. Traditional Chinese medicine teaches that hot/warm food nourishes the body by bringing heat which improves circulation. To support this theory, some studies have found that food associated with heat consists of compounds that are on average lower in molecular weight, yet higher in protein and fat - which contribute to energy production, and magnesium and potassium - which contribute to blood pressure and nerve function.(https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666154320300247) Here is a list of some hot/warm commercial pet food and treats: - SideBySide Pet "Warming" - Dr. Judy Morgan's Fire Element Diet - Pet Tao "Blaze" Freeze Dried Raw Formula - JustFoodForDogs Venison & Squash Recipe - JustFoodForDogs Lamb & Rice Recipe

Creating a Cat-friendly Garden: Safe Plants for Cats

Cat owners understand the importance of creating a safe and comfortable environment for their feline companions. While indoor living provides protection for cats from outdoor dangers, it also limits their access to the natural world. This is where a cat-friendly garden comes into play. A well-designed garden can provide cats with the opportunity to explore, exercise, and satisfy their natural instincts without compromising their safety. However, when it comes to selecting plants for a cat-friendly garden, it is crucial to be mindful of their potential toxicity. Many common garden plants can be harmful to cats if ingested, causing a range of health issues from mild gastrointestinal upset to more severe organ damage. Therefore, it is essential for cat owners to educate themselves on the safest plants to include in their garden. In this article, we will explore some of the top safe plants for cats, as well as tips for creating a cat-friendly garden that will keep both your furry friend and your greenery in good health.

1. Select cat-safe plants for gardens.

When it comes to creating a cat-friendly garden, one of the most important considerations is selecting plants that are safe for cats. Many common plants and flowers can be toxic to cats if ingested, causing a range of symptoms from mild stomach upsets to more serious health issues. To ensure the safety and well-being of your feline friend, it is crucial to research and carefully choose cat-safe plants for your garden. This not only protects your cat but also allows them to enjoy the outdoors without any potential dangers. By taking the time to select cat-safe plants for your garden, you can create a peaceful and worry-free environment for both you and your furry companion.

2. Avoid toxic plants for cats.

When planning a cat-friendly garden, it is important to be aware of the potential dangers that certain plants can pose to your furry friend. Some plants may cause mild digestive upset, while others can be extremely toxic and even fatal to cats if ingested. To keep your cat safe, it is best to avoid toxic plants altogether and opt for cat-friendly alternatives. This not only protects your cat's health but also allows you to have a beautiful and safe garden without worrying about potential hazards. It is always better to be cautious and informed when it comes to creating a cat-friendly garden.

3. Opt for non-toxic foliage options.

In addition to avoiding toxic plants, opting for non-toxic foliage options is another important aspect of creating a safe and cat-friendly garden. While some plants may not be toxic to cats, they can still irritate their skin or cause discomfort if ingested. It is best to research and choose plants that are not only non-toxic but also non-irritating to cats. This will not only keep your furry friend safe but also ensure a peaceful and enjoyable environment for both you and your cat. Some great non-toxic options for a cat-friendly garden include spider plants, bamboo, and spiderwort. Remember to always check the ASPCA's list of toxic and non-toxic plants for cats before adding any new plants to your garden.

4. Consider catnip and catmint plants.

Another great option to consider for a cat-friendly garden is catnip and catmint plants. These plants are not only safe for cats to be around, but they also have a calming effect on them. Catnip and catmint contain a compound called nepetalactone, which can induce a sense of euphoria in cats, making them more relaxed and content. Additionally, these plants are easy to grow and require minimal maintenance, making them a perfect addition to any cat-friendly garden. Just be sure to keep an eye on your cats' consumption of these plants, as too much can cause digestive issues. Overall, catnip and catmint are great choices for a safe and enjoyable garden for both your feline friends and yourself.

5. Create a designated cat area.

In addition to catnip and catmint, there are other plants that can be added to a designated cat area in your garden. For example, cat grass provides cats with essential nutrients and helps with digestion. Valerian is another herb that can be planted in a designated cat area, as it has a calming effect on cats. However, it's important to note that valerian can be invasive and should be planted in a container to prevent it from spreading throughout the garden. By creating a designated cat area, you can provide a safe and stimulating outdoor space for your feline friends to enjoy. Just be sure to research and monitor any plants you add to ensure they are safe for your cats.

6. Choose plants with vertical elements.

In addition to specific plants that are safe and beneficial for cats, it's also important to consider adding vertical elements to your cat-friendly garden. Cats naturally love to climb and perch, so incorporating tall plants or structures, such as cat trees or shelves, can provide them with exercise and mental stimulation. This also allows them to safely observe their surroundings, satisfying their curious nature. Just be sure to avoid any plants with toxic leaves or thorns that could harm your feline friends. With a mix of safe and stimulating elements, your cat-friendly garden will be the perfect oasis for your furry companions.

7. Provide hiding spots for cats.

In addition to providing vertical elements and safe plants for cats, it is also important to include hiding spots in a cat-friendly garden. Cats are natural hunters and enjoy having hiding spots where they can observe their environment and feel secure. These hiding spots can include dense shrubs, tall grasses, or even small tunnels made from branches or rocks. By creating these hiding spots, you are not only enriching your cat's environment but also providing a safe and stimulating space for them to explore and play. Just be sure to avoid toxic plants in these hiding spots as well, to ensure the safety and wellbeing of your feline friends.

8. Encourage interactive play with plants.

Another way to encourage interactive play with your cats in the garden is by incorporating plants that are safe and fun for them to play with. Some plants, such as catnip, have a stimulating effect on cats and can be used as a playful reward for good behavior. Other plants, like cat grass, provide a safe and nutritious snack for your cats to nibble on while exploring the garden. You can also create a designated digging area filled with loose soil or sand for your cats to satisfy their natural instinct to dig and bury objects. By including these interactive elements, you can create a cat-friendly garden that not only provides a safe and stimulating environment but also promotes a healthy and active lifestyle for your feline friends.

9. Use natural pest control methods.

Another important aspect of creating a cat-friendly garden is using natural pest control methods. Many chemical pesticides can be harmful to cats if ingested or absorbed through their paws. Instead, consider using natural alternatives such as diatomaceous earth, essential oils, or companion planting. These methods can effectively control pests while keeping your feline companions safe. It's also important to regularly check for any potential hazards, such as poisonous plants, and remove them from your garden. By utilizing natural pest control methods, you can create a safe and healthy environment for both your cats and your garden.

10. Ensure proper fencing for safety.

In addition to using natural pest control methods and regularly checking for potential hazards, ensuring proper fencing is essential for creating a safe and cat-friendly garden. Cats are curious animals and are known to wander and explore, which can put them at risk of getting into dangerous situations. By installing a secure fence around your garden, you can prevent your cat from escaping and encountering potential hazards outside of your property. It is important to choose a fence that is tall enough to prevent jumping and has small enough gaps to prevent squeezing through. Additionally, make sure to regularly inspect and repair any damage to the fence to maintain its effectiveness in keeping your cat safe.

To sum up, creating a cat-friendly garden doesn't have to be a daunting task. By incorporating a few safe and enriching plants, you can provide your feline friends with a safe and stimulating outdoor environment. Just remember to always do your research before introducing any new plants to your garden and to monitor your cat's behavior and consumption to ensure their safety. With a little bit of effort and knowledge, you can create a garden that both you and your furry companions can enjoy.

4. Are there any specific gardening techniques or strategies that can help prevent cats from digging up or damaging plants in the garden?

There are several techniques to prevent cats from digging up or damaging plants in the garden. One option is to create a designated area for cats to dig, such as a sandbox filled with loose soil or sand. Placing obstacles like rocks or chicken wire around plants can also deter them. Using deterrents like citrus peels, coffee grounds, or commercial cat repellents can help keep cats away. Additionally, providing alternative distractions, such as toys or catnip, can redirect their attention. Regularly maintaining the garden, ensuring plants are properly watered, and using mulch can make the soil less attractive for digging.

5. Can you recommend any additional resources or tips for creating a safe and enjoyable garden for both cats and humans?

Yes! When creating a safe and enjoyable garden for both cats and humans, there are several additional resources and tips to consider. Firstly, provide designated areas for cats to explore, such as cat-friendly plants, scratching posts, and hiding spots. Ensure that any plants in the garden are non-toxic to cats. Install secure fencing or use cat-proof barriers to prevent cats from escaping the garden and encountering hazards. Avoid using harmful chemicals or pesticides in the garden, as they can be toxic to cats. Finally, regularly supervise and monitor cats in the garden to ensure their safety and well-being.

Bvs Rajeev: I have admitted my father for severe infection in intestine. I am glad that I chose this hospital. Dr.Jayanth is the one who treated him and his treatment is on the point. No nonsense discussions and crisp words. I admire his expertise in the field. My dad is completely recovered now and doing great. Also nursing staff is very hospitable and attentive. Only thing I suggest them is to work on the cleanliness of rooms. Current room condition is not bad but if its better I would have given them 5 rating.

A colonoscopy is a crucial diagnostic technique used to look into the rectum and colon’s inner lining. It makes use of a colonoscope, a lengthy, flexible tube with a tiny camera at the tip.

Essential Oils and Dogs: Unleashing the Safety Tips for Your Furry Friend

Essential oils have gained popularity for their therapeutic and aromatic properties in the realm of holistic health. While humans often enjoy the benefits of these oils, the use of essential oils around pets, particularly dogs, requires careful consideration. Dogs have unique physiological characteristics, making them more sensitive to certain substances found in essential oils.

Understanding the Risks

Just like with cats, essential oils can pose risks to dogs due to their distinct metabolism. Dogs have a heightened sense of smell, and their skin can absorb oils more readily than humans. Moreover, they lack specific enzymes to process certain compounds found in essential oils, making them vulnerable to adverse reactions. The consequences of exposure can range from mild skin irritation to more severe symptoms like drooling, vomiting, difficulty breathing, and liver damage.

Toxic Essential Oils for Dogs

Several essential oils are particularly toxic to dogs and should be avoided entirely:

a. Tea Tree Oil: Known for its antiseptic properties, tea tree oil can cause toxic reactions in dogs, leading to skin irritation, lethargy, and even paralysis if ingested.

b. Cinnamon Oil: This oil can irritate a dog's skin and gastrointestinal tract, potentially causing vomiting and diarrhea.

c. Peppermint Oil: Although safe in small doses for some dogs, concentrated peppermint oil can cause digestive issues and respiratory problems.

d. Citrus Oils: Oils like lemon, lime, and orange contain compounds that can lead to skin irritation and upset stomachs in dogs.

Safe Usage of Essential Oils Around Dogs

If you use essential oils in your home and have a canine companion, follow these precautions to ensure their safety:

1. Dilution: Always dilute essential oils significantly before using them around dogs. Using carrier oils like coconut oil or jojoba oil can help reduce the potency.

2. Avoid Direct Contact: Refrain from applying undiluted essential oils directly onto your dog's skin, especially in sensitive areas like the abdomen and face.

3. Diffusion: When diffusing essential oils, ensure proper ventilation and avoid using the diffuser in a confined space.

4. Observe Your Dog: Pay close attention to your dog's behavior and look for signs of distress or discomfort. If you notice any adverse reactions, discontinue use immediately.

Alternative Approaches to Aromatherapy for Dogs

While essential oils may not be suitable for all dogs, there are alternative methods to create a calming environment for your furry friend:

1. Herbal Infusions: Some dog-safe herbs like chamomile and lavender can be used to create gentle infusions for their beds or living areas.

2. Professional Advice: Seek guidance from a veterinarian or a certified animal aromatherapist before introducing any new scents or remedies to your dog's routine.

While essential oils have therapeutic benefits for humans, it's crucial to approach their use around dogs with caution. Dogs' unique physiology makes them vulnerable to potential dangers associated with essential oils, especially when used irresponsibly. Always prioritize your dog's well-being by choosing safe alternatives or consulting with a professional before introducing any new scents into their environment. By being mindful and informed, you can create a harmonious and safe living space for your beloved canine companion.

Healthy & happy through the winter

Blog posts, Healthy tips / October 4, 2022

Joint pains or the susceptibility to infections are common winter issues. This could be caused by an IgG food allergy (delayed food allergy) with subsequent chronic inflammation. So, get rid of it to become healthy again and get safe through the cold winter months. Find out why your body reacts to some foods and why this may have a negative impact on your health.

Our body generally tolerates food as long as it is digested properly and passes through the intact intestinal barrier in the intended manner, i.e. through the intestinal cells. Normally, the immune system does not identify food proteins as harmful.

However, medication, infections, mycoses, stress and environmental toxins can cause repeated damage to the intestinal wall. This allows food particles to pass between the intestinal cells and get into the bloodstream before they have been completely digested. The immune system then identifies these particles as “harmful”. As a result, it might trigger an immune response against these food proteins. If this food is eaten on a regular basis, repeated immune responses can lead to chronic inflammation.

ImuPro and susceptibility to infections

The gastrointestinal immune system is the largest in the body. More than 80% of your immune system is in your gastrointestinal tract. It is an almost insurmountable barrier for bacteria, viruses and other pathogens.

If the gut or any other organ is inflamed due to a delayed food allergy, your immune response might be compromised and you might be more susceptible to infections. This will have an impact on the base load of the immune system: It has fewer resources at its disposal for acute infections, and pathogens might enter the bloodstream through the intestinal mucosa more easily.

ImuPro and joint pain

An IgG food allergy might trigger an immune response. Immune complexes made up of antigens (food) and IgG antibodies circulate in the blood and can attach to sensitised tissue by means of a receptor (CAM = cellular adhesion molecule). If the immune complexes are broken down by phagocytosis as part of the inflammation reaction, the surrounding tissue is damaged. Joint pain can be intensified or caused by an IgG food allergy, if a joint has already been sensitised due to strain (during sport, for example) or latent inflammation.

If you find yourself getting more infections or suffering from joint pains during the cold winter months, it might be worth checking whether these problems might be caused by inflammation triggered by an IgG allergy. Find out more about ImuPro here.

Healthy gut – Healthy body

Do you suffer from gastrointestinal complaints, headaches and migraines, skin problems, attention deficits, obesity and other chronic complaints. A chronic inflammation due to a delayed food allergy might be the reason. Delayed food allergies can be detected with the ImuPro blood test.
