Dietitian Opens Nutrisense Medical Nutrition Clinic To Help With Difficult Health Concerns

June 1, 2011 - PRLog -- Tracy Zeitz, a Registered and Licensed Dietitian with specialized training as a Certified LEAP Therapist has recently opened a new clinic, Nutrisense Medical Nutrition Clinic.  Tracy has experience working with a variety of health conditions but her main interest is in helping people overcome the devastating effects of food and chemical sensitivities.

The LEAP Program (Lifestyle, Eating and Performance) is a strategic method of dealing with the dietary components of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), migraines, fibromyalgia, ADHD, Autism and other symptoms caused by delayed food sensitivities.

Food sensitivities have been implicated in over 35 different health conditions and affect 20-30% of the American population.  Some examples include:

Irritable Bowel Syndrome      Crohn’s Disease      Ulcerative Colitis
Migraine and other headaches   Fibromyalgia         Heartburn/GERD
Rheumatoid Arthritis         Joint and Muscle Pain      Eczema/Hives
Autism               ADD/ADHD         Fatigue
Weight Imbalances

Food sensitivities are much more common than food allergies.  In a true food allergy, the immune system produces antibodies and histamine in response to the specific food, according to the National Library of Medicine.  The subsequent symptoms include itching, wheezing, cramping, swelling and anaphylactic shock - which can occur within minutes and result in death. Food sensitivities produce delayed reactions — from a few hours to several days.

Tracy looks forward to helping more clients with these health problems and encourages you to contact her for an introductory session to assess whether this program is appropriate for your health concerns.
