Our Promise to you

Our goal is to find the root cause of your Allergy or Food Intolerance. We aim to ease your discomfort as much as possible whilst working with you to achieve a long-term lasting solution.

Instagram post 18142007584070059 Eggs are a powerhouse of essential nutrients and provide significant amounts of protein, calcium, iron, zinc and B-vitamins. That is the good news! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ The not so good news is that eggs are a common allergen; much more common than people think. We see all the time from our food intolerance testing reports that eggs are a highly allergic food and very common in children which poses a problem when feeding our little ones as eggs are easy to cook, soft to eat, nutritious and kids love them! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ The fact that they are very much present in our food climate also makes it very hard to avoid them.⁠ It is therefore important to always read the ingredients label carefully before purchase. Here is a checklist of some of the main product ingredients that are derived from eggs - Albumin, Egg white, Egg yolk, Frozen egg, Dried egg, Egg powder, Egg protein, Ovalbumin, Ovovitellin. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Symptoms of an egg allergy can range from hives, itching, watering eyes, runny nose and rash like eruptions. A sensitivity or intolerance to eggs - a more delayed reaction - could manifest in symptoms such as bloating, headaches, constipation or diarrhoea. Both egg yolks and egg white contain proteins that can cause a reaction, but an allergy or sensitivity to egg white has been found to be most common. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ The only way to find out if you have any reaction or sensitivity to eggs is through proper testing which we offer at PAC. Eliminating eggs from your diet can be a challenge, especially if you don’t know what to replace them with. We have qualified Naturopaths and Nutritionists who can help you plan your meals to ensure that you get adequate protein whilst undergoing an elimination and rotational diet. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ With a professionally structured and administered program your body can “learn” to tolerate eggs and enjoy them. From our experience of elimination and rotational diets once adhered to give amazing results! So you or your family do not need to be egg free forever! P.S. try to always buy pasture raised eggs for better nutritional content.⁠

Instagram post 17857299140016018 The Microbiome in Babies and Toddlers – Part Three At Perth Allergy Clinic we look after many babies and toddlers who suffer with allergies. We would like to share with you some very important things we have learned from clinical experience that we can pass onto you about your babies’ microbiome. An infant’s microbiome is very immature for the first few years therefore it is vulnerable especially if there is a family history of allergies and/or an illness which has required antibiotic therapy. Both of these can make the already permeable gastro intestinal tract (git) lining even more permeable. This permeability may induce an immune response which may manifest in symptoms of eczema, skin rashes, hives. It is therefore, very important to support your child’s microbiome with immune strain specific probiotics. The more you look after your child’s microbiome in the formative years the healthier your child will be. At three years of age the microbiome stabilises and whatever condition the microbiome is in at that stage is what your child has to live with moving forward in life. If there is a family history of allergies especially on the mother’s side then we encourage the mother to have a test to check for food intolerances and or sensitivities. The best time to test is either in the pre-conception care period or in the early stages of pregnancy. This way we can identify the foods causing inflammation and minimise them with an elimination and rotational diet which will decrease the inflammation for the mother and reduce the risk for the unborn child. We can test children from the age of 6 months and work with the food intolerance report so as to introduce the solids that your child is not allergic to, build up their microbiome and then rotate the food groups so your child has a healthy balanced diet. #microbiome #microbiomematters #perthallergyclinic #allergy #allergyfree #allergyblogger #allergyaware #naturopath #holistichealth #allergyfriendly #naturalmedicine #naturalhealthcare #allergytesting #allergyrelief #guthealth #probiotics #wellness #digestion #bacteria #healthy #wellnessblogger #wellnesstips #immune #healthymicrobiome #microbiomesupport

These include traditional allergic symptoms such as 🔸Allergic rhinitis 🔸Hayfever 🔸Eczema and Asthma 🔸Gastrointestinal 🔸Fatigue 🔸Headache 🔸Joint Pain Regardless of the cause, be it environmental or food induced, the impact on an individual’s quality of life can be considerable. When it comes to clinical approaches the currently accepted consensus is to avoid the allergen and prescribe symptomatic relief when needed. However, restricted diets that eliminate food groups long term may create a risk of nutritional deficiencies as well as emotional and social stress. Whilst it may offer short term symptom relief, just removing the ‘trigger’ of the allergy fails to address the underlying pathophysiology driving the over-reactivity. Symptoms of over-reactivity may arise from: 🔸Immune dysfunction 🔸Inflammation 🔸Poor digestion 🔸Intestinal hyper-permeability 🔸Gut dysbiosis 🔸Poor detoxifying mechanisms Our Allergy and Reactivity Reduction Program has been designed to increase tolerance to allergens by addressing the therapeutic targets for reactivity. We aim to provide not only symptom relief but to address the underlying causes by supporting immune system modulation, promoting optimal digestive function and gut barrier repair as well as to restore a healthy microbiome.

Instagram post 17907432304457469 Every day at Perth Allergy Clinic we see so many people who experience adverse reactions to foods. There are many reactions but the common ones we regularly see are: • 🔸 Eczema 🔸 Abdominal pain 🔸 Bloating 🔸 Constipation and diarrhoea 🔸 Depression 🔸 Fatigue & lethargy 🔸 Fluid retention 🔸 Headache, Migraine 🔸 Nausea 🔸 Rashes 🔸 Acne 🔸 Arthritis 🔸 Autism 🔸 Irritable Bowel Syndrome 🔸 Psoriasis Food intolerances are tricky to pinpoint as the symptoms can manifest over 2-3 days therefore it is hard to be sure which food might have been the culprit or in fact if it was a combination of several foods. The term “food sensitivity or food intolerance” refers to a condition where an individual reacts to an ingested food as though it were a toxin. Foods that are normally considered healthy to most human immune systems, are reacted to as a threat in those individuals with food intolerances. Symptoms vary considerably and the manifestations appear in different ways to different foods. Many people live with minor or major symptoms of adverse food reactions for years without ever suspecting the involvement of the immune system and the foods that trigger its reaction. We hear the same story over and over “I’ve been living with my xxx problem for many years and I’m so fed up with it!” Now it’s time to do something about it. Our advice is the detection and measurement of food intolerances is the first step! You have to know what you are reacting too in order to fix it! Following the dual implementation of dietary changes based on measurement of food intolerances and the repairing of leaky gut, many individuals report improved weight control, healthier skin, more vitality and altogether a better quality of life, For the month of June we are putting our very popular Food Print +220 (testing for 220 food sensitivities) on special for $449.00.

Just like with your digestive lining, your skin lining has it’s own microbiome a natural balance of beneficial organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi and mites) that help to keep your skin healthy. ⁠
⁠
The skin barrier is made of up layers of skin (making it tough), fats (the glue to retain skin moisture) and beneficial organisms (that help fight off harmful bacteria). ⁠
⁠
This barrier can become damaged and weak when ⁠
⁠
- the body can’t produce enough healthy skin proteins or fats (this can due to certain genetics such as defects in the filaggrin gene); ⁠
⁠
- the skin is constantly exposed to irritants (such as chemicals, dust mites, allergies); or ⁠
⁠
- the skin microbiome (balance of good to bad organisms on the skin) changes ⁠
⁠
- the immune system is swamped (i.e. there is infection with staph. aureus bacteria and the immune system isn’t making enough anti-microbial peptides (AMPs), or the body is producing lots of histamine in response to immune irritants). ⁠
⁠
Some call this a “leaky” skin barrier because it allows more substances – harmful bacteria, pollen, mould, or chemicals – to get into the blood stream and activate the immune system.⁠
