If you have allergies, food sensitivities, digestive symptoms, headaches, cognitive decline, depression, an autoimmune disorder or a chronic inflammatory condition, finding and treating a leaky gut could be especially crucial for you. Healing the gut barrier is so pivotal for resolving chronic disease that if it isn’t addressed, other treatments will have little to no …
If you suffer with horrible food reactions, this one is for you! I've written down my top tips for calming things down. This is a much extended and updated version of the old factsheet and this time I've included my most successful supplement protocols to lower acute reactions, info on the brain retraining technique I …
Research out recently - albeit from a very small sample - suggests that people on a coeliac or gluten free diet would benefit from taking prebiotics and probiotics because their microbiome is short on healthy bacteria. This is no doubt the case for most on a restricted diet mainly, as the study suggests, because of …

Yep. I confess I'm mad as heck, at the end of my tether, spitting feathers-angry just at the moment. Sometimes you have times like that with a chronic illness, don't you? Well, I do. Why do I - and so many of us - have to be so ruddy sensitive to stuff all the time? …
A good reminder here that if you are on proton pump inhibitors or anything that regularly decreases your stomach acid, it could be only a matter of time before you become more sensitive to foods. Why? Because one of the first issues that causes food sensitivity is lack of stomach acid. The acid is needed …
Here is the third post in my series about multiple-sensitivity and new ways to look at it. You can see about neurons close to threshold here and brain-gating loss here. This time, we are looking at mechanisms for loss of oral tolerance in the immune system. One of the things I see time and time …

As promised in my last post about 'new' causes of multiple sensitivity to think about, here is another possible one for you: loss of brain-gating. Eh? Well, almost all sensory stimuli goes through the thalamus in the brain and lots of inhibitory mechanisms (too complex to go into here) are needed to stop the thalamus …

During my recent neuroinflammation training, I came across a couple of 'new' reasons why we may be hyper-sensitive to things. One of them is the concept of neurons being too close to threshold. I recently saw Dr Datis Kharazzian explaining this so I'll share that and you can see what I mean... If you are …

I've been doing an awful lot of work on loss of oral tolerance recently in a bid to uncover the myriad biochemical reasons someone might be multi-sensitive. I have a lot more to do on it; I'm trying to do the research between patients for us and come up with a plan we can use …
Well apart from my own personal experience and watching your efforts where I can clearly see it does (!), this is a good question to ask. I've been following the Limbic Retraining forum for quite some years now - it's how I first came across DNRS and Gupta programmes. But quite rightly, as Julie says …
