Pulse test for food allergy that you can do at home...

A pulse test for food allergy (also known as the Coca pulse test) is a really simple way to gauge whether you’re reacting to foods. There is a wide range of relatively expensive food sensitivity and allergy testing in the market place and to be honest, it’s quite hit and miss. I’ve tested hundreds of people using various labs and testing methods and the results have been inconsistent.

As you saw in the previous article, I was in my mid thirties when I discovered I had low stomach acid. My zinc deficiency, B6 deficiency, a history of H. pylori and high urinary indican were indirect indications.

Most natural health experts agree that low stomach acid levels...

Zinc challenge test at home – easy and inexpensive...

A zinc challenge test (or zinc tally test) is a simple way to check for zinc deficiency, which is incredibly common. I had pretty significant zinc deficiency, which I found using a combination of indirect tests and we see it an awful lot in our clients. One of these tests was a simple and inexpensive home test called the zinc challenge test, which is also known as the zinc tally test. Before I explain how to do it, here’s a brief explanation of why I recommend you get your zinc levels tested. Zinc deficiency symptoms Zinc is a critically...
