Measuring Food Sensitivities using EVEXIA i: EVEXIostics. KBMO the Food Inflammation Test (FIT Test) Understanding Food Sensitivities, Food Sensitivities and related diseases atfect atleast 100 milfon people worldwide and cause a wide variety of iinesses ranging from skin rashes ‘and headaches to chronic intestinal diseases. Any food antigen entering the bloodstream can produce symptoms associated with food ‘sensitivities, Most food antigens enter the bloodstream through the intestinal epithelium and stimulate the production of IgG antibodies. IgG antibodies bind to food antigens that are fee inthe blood or that have deposited in tissues and form immune complexes ((C). The IC activate ‘comolement C3 which becomes covalenty linked to the IgG forming |C-C3b, Ultimately, the Cab on the ICis cleaved forming IC-C3d. During this process, C3a (anaphylatoxin) is released which causes smooth muscle contraction and has a potent vascular effect. Under normal Circumstances, circulating 10-C3b bind to the ORI receptors on ted blood cells and are cleared from the circulation inthe lver and spleen. Continued production of antibody and formation of IC may result in deposition of IC in tissues which results in activation of the terrinal complement pathway C5-9 on the surface ofthe tissue causing cell is and increased inflammation. ‘The Food Inflammation Test (FIT Test) Improves ‘Cantonal cena genes nom sans! | anon Cone gees wo dane: Poet 600318 Sensitivity by Generating Two Signals ‘The measurement of both igG and Immune Complex eoieonee snscausee ena containing G3 1C-C3d) simultaneously isthe Key to sanstohuna \ savant ea assessing food senstvites.

The foods which tested positive were removed from the diot and the patients were re-tested (Graph 2, and the original symptoms were reviewed to determine i the patont fet better. A significant reduction in food sensitivities was observed and in many ‘cases the symptoms ware also reduced (Graph 2). This study demonstrates that food elimination based on the FIT Test reduces symptoms and is an affective tool in patiant car. ‘Table 1. Patient Symptoms Table 2.
