ARE YOU SENSITIVE TO GLUTEN?


Often assumed to be a food allergy, Gluten sensitivity is actually an autoimmune process which affects an alarming percentage of the population.

The most significant symptoms are weight gain, fatigue and depression.

What are the symptoms of gluten intolerance?
The symptoms of gluten intolerance can vary per individual.  Common symptoms include: constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloating, headaches, and fatigue.

What is gluten intolerance?
Gluten intolerance is an inability to digest the protein portion of many common grains including wheat, rye, and barley.  For people who are gluten intolerant these grains cause a reaction in the intestines that sets off a myriad of symptoms.  This condition often goes undiagnosed because the reaction can appear 12-24 hours after eating gluten, making it hard to identify the offending food.

How do you know if you are gluten intolerant?
A simple saliva sample taken at home and then sent to the lab will help you uncover your body's response to gluten. 

FREE gluten sensitivity test! 
Don’t miss your chance to win a FREE gluten sensitivity test and a 20 minute consultation with me, Vickie Johnson of Body Fuel.  Valued at over $100.00 this is absolutely free to one lucky winner. 


Gluten sensitivity is a very real condition.  35 – 40% of the population may experience gluten sensitivity. Fortunately, we don’t have to employ any guesswork or speculate about gluten sensitivity.  With the genetic testing available today, we can be sure about gluten problems.

I look forward to seeing you Saturday!

THE POWER OF FOOD


Would you like to....
LOSE weight and keep it OFF for good?

      Enhance your athletic performance?

                  Reverse and slow the signs of ageing?
         
We teach you the power that food, YES! – “REAL FOOD”   has on your body, your health and your life. 

Whether you use the cleanest detox, the latest diet program or nutritional breakthrough, eventually, you have to eat food. Our bodies are designed to use food as our fuel for energy and life.  This is how we have lived and evolved for thousands of years.  The more man tries to modify, manipulate or improve upon our foundational life sustenance, the fatter and sicker we get. 

DISCOVER THE RIGHT FOODS FOR YOUR BODY
Your body’s biochemical make-up is as unique as your fingerprints. Your body processes food and utilizes nutrients in it’s own individual way, based on genetics, family history and your own interaction with the environment. 

Metabolic Typing® uses science to determine your individual metabolic needs.  This will allow you to choose the right foods, food combinations and nutrients that will enable your body to function at peak efficiency for optimal energy, health, performance, weight management and emotional well being. 

As a certified Metabolic Typing Advisor, Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist and C.H.E.K .Holistic Life Coach. I find personal reward in helping my clients improve their health and lifestyle.  It is a true blessing to see increased energy and self confidence as client’s breakthrough health barriers. When people begin to look and feel good they become empowered to fulfill their destiny and live life to the fullest.                                                                                                                  Vickie Johnson
