How Cryotherapy can help heal your food sensitivity
Food allergies and sensitivities are on the rise. With the rapid increase in intensive farming methods over the last 50 years, coupled with the stresses and strains of modern life, consumption of alcohol, and the use of NSAIDs drugs like aspirin, more adults than ever before are vulnerable to developing a food intolerance.
Adults are at more risk than children due to their compromised digestive function because of stress, as well as the fact that your digestion slows with age which leads to inflammation and a greater risk of developing intolerances to foods which may have previously not caused a problem.
Inflammation is the body’s natural reaction to stress, infections, injuries and illnesses to help protect us from further harm and to help us heal. However, chronic, long-term inflammation is a precursor to diseases such as cancer, diabetes, arthritis, Crohn’s disease, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus, psoriasis, asthma, eosinophilic esophagitis, colitis and heart disease. Some of which are caused or made worse by faulty or overtly inflammatory immune system responses.
After whole body cryotherapy, food intolerances decrease as reactive food molecules are unable to enter the bloodstream, and symptoms which many patients have had to live with for a long time such as hives, eczema, rosacea, rash, congestion and wheezing naturally reduce or disappear.
A huge benefit of whole body cryotherapy is that it quickly and effectively alleviates inflammation throughout the body, not only decreasing symptoms of food intolerances but also minimising the signs of ageing. You can finally be free to eat the foods that you enjoy without any nasty side effects, and feel more youthful in the process!
Whole body cryotherapy helps to reduce the symptoms of food intolerance in three key ways:
The symptoms of a food allergy are caused by the immune system producing histamine - a chemical which regulates the body’s responses to substances that it perceives to be harmful. By reducing histamine production whole body cryotherapy helps to reduce food allergy symptoms.
Whole body cryotherapy can help reduce food intolerances and heal ‘leaky gut syndrome’ by reducing inflammation in your the stomach and intestines. Leaky gut syndrome is a digestive condition which causes gaps to appear in the walls of the intestines which allow bacteria and other toxins to pass into the bloodstream. By reducing the inflammation caused by allergens, stress, or disease, the gut is able to heal itself so it is no longer permeable. Often linked with food intolerances, healing a leaky gut is important as it is linked to irritable bowel syndrome, celiac disease, chronic liver disease and, polycystic ovary syndrome.
Particles of foods which are common allergens such as gluten, soy, dairy and nuts can cause inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract leading to discomfort and other painful symptoms. However, whole body cryotherapy suppresses this inflammation and reduces or even completely eliminating the uncomfortable symptoms.
