ALCAT blood testing can determine which foods are being recruited to present you with autoimmune disorder symptoms. Glen Ellyn Pharmacy offers 20 levels of ALCAT testing that range from 100 foods for $365.00 up to various packages to the 200 foods and 120 environmental items at $987.50. This price includes a blood dray at your home or work by appointment. These ALCAT tests measure inflammation via the swelling of the white blood cells unlike allergy testing which measure IgE and IgG releases. These allergy reactions are more immediate in nature while the sensitivities are much delayed and often when we eat the highly sensitive foods, we get a serotin release which actually is HAPPY chemical so we feel good when consumed and withdrawal symptoms when we stop so we tend to crave these foods. 95% FOS (fructoolegosaccharides - a prebiotic) and Florajen3 a probiotic taken daily increase the health of our bodies intestinal biome. It is highly linked to all autoimmune disorders as the colon is where much metal excretion takes place. This combination called Synbiotic Therapy is the highest cell cultures at the lowest cost in the market, averaging about 27.00 a month. More information packaged for the average consumer understanding is available at Glen Ellyn Pharmacy. The next connection is the Vitamin D dot. All of these Autoimmune Disorders practically do NOT exist at the equator where the sun angle is providing higher levels of this metal detoxing
vitamin. These disorders start to increase about 32 degrees of latitude as civilizations move further away from the equator or in America about Atlanta, Georgia. At 32 degrees we cannot acquire free vitamin D from the sun all year long. In Chicago we cannot make any from Mid October until mid March. One autoimmune disorder is diabetes and in Northern Finland, Juvenile diabetes is the highest incidence rate. Giving babies 1,000 IU daily at birth and 2,000 IU daily D eliminated 90% of those cases. A rather large cost savings for each prevented case for life. The last DOT is the testing for species and location of mercury in our bodies. We also sell the Mercury-Tri-Test from QuickSilver Scientific. This is a hair, urine and blood test for both the elemental and organic forms of mercury. And connecting these DOTS for Autoimmune Solutions is what I think is going on. These conditions seem to be growing and advancing to more sick people in the population. Causes could start with how we are born and even how our grandmothers were born. Our diet is playing a large role as is the overall condition of our immune systems. Eighty percent of the worlds citizens test below 30 ng/ml of the 25 OH D or the active form of vitamin D while 40 to 60 is considered the new healthy levels. We spend less time in the sun and wearing sun screen is contributing to these below normal levels even in the sunniest parts of the world. These tests are available if paying out of pocket for $65.00. Information also available at Glen Ellyn Pharmacy see Bob Listecki Pharmacist.
