what is ‘reactivity’? and is it a life sentence?

August 16, 2018 by Kate Leave a Comment

reactivity food chemical intolerance solution Reactivity means, simply, that your body reacts to many things. This can be anything – foods, chemicals in the environment, criticism, emotions, pain. If you’re a reactive person, you feel everything strongly. Your system over-reacts to everything. (Feeling things strongly is not necessarily a bad thing, but reacting to everyday things can be really difficult.) Signs and symptoms cover every body system, but primarily skin, lungs, nose and eyes, nervous system (mood and headaches) and gut.

immune boosting, nutritious, delicious chicken soup

immune boosting chicken soup from scratch
