About our Immune System
Our mouth and nose form part of, and are the open windows and gateway to, our mucosal immune system. This front line immune system comprises of our nose, mouth, oesophagus, and the entirety of our gut, and houses our ‘first responders’ - who either fight off, or let invade, a myriad of bugs and pathogens from our body – all day, every day.
Did you know that the mucosal system is home to a huge 70% of our immune system? In fact, our mucosal system deals with more allergens in one single day, then the rest of our systemic immune system deals with during its entire lifetime. Isn’t that incredible?!
Just think about it, everything you eat, drink, chew, suck, inhale, smell and taste. It all needs to be checked and verified by the army of immune cells in our mucosa. It’s where the external environment meets our internal ecosystem, and the first place that we react to foods and toxins.
So it makes sense to check if our mucosal immune system is healthy, right? To see if it’s strong and adept at fighting off viruses, bacteria, allergens and toxins. Or whether it’s struggling and even building antibodies to certain foods and toxins. Because remember, if a pathogen of any sort makes it past our ‘first line of defense’, then we’ll feel it systemically (in the whole body) and can get much more unwell.
What’s included
25 antigens are tested for, in order to find out exactly what is affecting your mucosal immune system, to analyse its overall health, and to determine whether you are creating antibodies (via IgA and IgM) to certain markers. You will be able to see:
• the health of your intestinal wall (e.g. leaky gut)
• if you have a greater chance of developing Inflammatory Bowel Disease
• whether you’re intolerant to wheat or gluten (across many different forms)
• if you’re intolerant to a range of foods including: egg, casein and soy
• whether you’re being exposed to mould in a harmful way
• if you have a raised risk or Autoimmune Diseases or not
• whether you’re reacting to toxic heavy metals, including mercury
• the general health of your immune system overall
• and so much more!
The Immunity Reset gives a deep dive into what’s really going on for your front-line immune system: is it healthy? Or is it inflamed and much less effective? And it also provides lots of insight into your general immune system health too, because it includes a wide variety of markers.
The Immunity Reset is the perfect place to start on your ‘root cause’ health investigations. So don’t wait to ‘maybe’ feel better at some point, take the first step to better health NOW, with a targeted test and even more targeted treatments.
