Tests and nutrionist

The test results showed that I have defiences in vitiamin D and folic acid, as well as allergic to shrimp. So off to find a nutrianist. Now I am fortunate to have insurance. Did you know that while your MD's and choripractors are included - nutrianists are not. When insurance speaks of well care- I wonder why. At any case not only was I looking for a nutrianists, but a holistic one as well. All I can say is I am thankfull for payflex, as I could not afford to go. I still need to budget.
That visit was on May 25th. After looking at my tests results, she named a few more that was needed. However part of the conversation was about how eating and exercise is often not enough to break down the fat and have a healthy body. It seems that fat is attracted to toxins. Toxins come in several ways, the air we breath as well as the foods we eat. We've all become more aware of what is placed in our foods of convience, such as all the unpronouncable preservatives. So a detox was in order. I've never been on a detox. Not a short term one either- 28 days. No worries I do get to eat food. The big no's are wheat, in any form. (bread!pasta!) and caffine.
So it has been almost 28 days. I have it marked on my calandar. July 2nd. I am waiting to return to the nutrionist for the next step. As the results of her test requests are in....apparently my amino acids are low as well. Those are another blog. Tuesday night, I will catch you up on the rest and attempt to post a picture....
