Intestinal flora tests in the test

Dr. Facebook
When I started building the nmi portal over 10 years ago, the term "Dr. Google" on. Asking Dr. Google meant googling a few of his symptoms and then coming across all sorts of websites that list diseases that go with them. And the deeper you delved into this web search, the more serious the illness became. And so what felt like 100% of searches for "stomach ache" or "sore … [Read more...] about Dr. Facebook
Part 7: IgG test and the Hering paradox
The problems of IGg4 tests I have also done two new IgG4 tests. As mentioned in blog part 3, I ate a lot of herring before my first IgG4 test. Since I haven't eaten herring for over 20 years, this should significantly increase my IgG value "herring", after all, it should be pretty close to "0". However, as Dr. Kofler - allergy expert at the Allergy Outpatient Clinic in Hall - … [Read more...] about Part 7: IgG test and the Hering paradox
Part 6: Florastatus the second
Home tests update: Florastatus and IgG4 test Background info: In parts 1 to 5 of this nmi-Portal blog series, I took a close look at self-tests and tried them out on myself.

Part 4/5: Flora status and eating disorders: the dark side of self-tests
Eating disorder thanks to self-diagnosis In the course of my research and my self-experiments, I came across an interesting topic that I hadn't anticipated when preparing for this blog series: eating disorders. Edburg Edlinger, dietician and nmi portal expert, tells me that she has more and more patients in her practice who have slipped into malnutrition as a result of such … [Read more...] about Part 4/5: Flora status and eating disorders: the dark side of self-tests
Part 3/5: IgG4 blood test and the horse milk scandal
In addition to the gluten story in the last blog entry, my IgG test has even more to offer, because according to the test I am "allergic" to a total of almost 20 foods. Now I knew in advance about the problems with the IgG tests and, mean as I am, I wanted to influence them. The seitan only worked to a limited extent. However, I also wanted to influence the herring value and … [Read more...] about Part 3/5: IgG4 blood test and the horse milk scandal
Part 2/5: What are IgG tests and how do you diagnose food allergies?
IgG is one of many immunoglobulins, i.e. antibodies, that are formed when you eat a certain food. Manufacturers and suppliers such as Kiweno say that a gut damaged by our lifestyle makes it permeable and our immune system reacts to food components that pass through the gut illegally, so to speak. This would be called a type III allergy to food (1,2). This then leads to … [Read more...] about Part 2/5: What are IgG tests and how do you diagnose food allergies?
