PSA: Your body always gives you feedback—if you know how to listen.
If you follow me, you saw I just returned from a blissful vacation—enjoying all the experiences and all the foods. 🌴
What you may not know is that I have IgG food sensitivities (not IgE allergies), so in daily life I’m intentional about avoiding foods that don’t support my physiology.
On vacation, I chose to relax those boundaries. In an effort to increase my morning protein intake, I had three eggs every day for five consecutive days.
By day six, I developed a full-body rash.
Could there be other explanations? Possibly. But this exact pattern has happened before—so for me, the connection was clear.
Once I returned home, resumed my usual egg-free, whole-food routine, and supported my system, my skin completely normalized within 10 days.
This experience was a powerful reminder of why individualized nutrition matters. What is nourishing for one person can be inflammatory for another. I’m grateful I’ve invested in understanding my own biochemistry—and that my body knows how to restore balance when supported appropriately.
I’m also grateful for naturopathic medicine and functional approaches that focus on identifying root causes and creating practical, personalized solutions—for myself and for my patients.
If you’re curious about what’s right for your body, let me know. I’m happy to share more.
