Hit Your Body’s Reset Button in 2019 with Regenerative Medicine

Feeling sluggish and just not like your “normal” self? Or maybe you’re suffering through the debilitating symptoms of chronic disease with no hope for relief in sight? Instead of blaming it all on the process of aging and accepting life’s hard knocks, start the new year by exploring the many exciting, new treatment options available in regenerative medicine.

Therapies used in regenerative medicine support the body’s own ability to renew, replace or regenerate its cells, tissues or organs to restore “normal” function. Treating patients with a holistic approach, Dr. Dale Guyer, founder of The Guyer Institute of Molecular Medicine, uses various regenerative therapies to treat the underlying causes of a patient’s health condition and help them feel like themself again.

While some early successes of regenerative medicine, also known as cell therapy, include blood transfusions, bone marrow transplants and certain skin-grafting procedures for burn victims, Dr. Guyer helps clients restore their bodies with all-natural peptides, stem cells, platelet-rich plasma, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapies. Read on to learn more about the benefits of each:

Peptide Therapy

Our bodies produce more than 70,000 kinds of peptides, which bind to other cells and molecules and give them targeted directions. By tapping into and tweaking the body’s own biochemistry, we can direct those peptides to heal or restore damaged cells to bring the body back into balance.

Without the side effects of traditional medications, peptides redefine how we dispense medicine. They do their job and then recycle with no build-up or toxic effect on the body. Peptides not only prolong life but increase the quality of it, with an approach to anti-aging that heals and restores the body by using its own chemistry.

Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapy involves isolating adult stem cells from your body’s own abdominal fat, then reinjecting those cells back into the body for regeneration, restoration and repair of cells and tissues in specific areas. Stem cells contain very high levels of peptide growth factors, which signal the body’s cells to regenerate, grow and repair.

Dr. Guyer uses stem cell therapy to treat patients with osteoarthritis, chronic fatigue, pulmonary disease and various autoimmune disorders. Stem cell therapy also offers cosmetic benefits, helping to promote more elasticity and suppleness in the skin. It enhances your mood and energy levels, reduces joint and body aches, boosts your sexual vitality and health, and improves vital cardiovascular and immune systems.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

PRP Therapy uses a patient’s own blood to create growth factors from the plasma, which we inject back into targeted sites around the body to promote and enhance the repair of connective tissues, thereby allowing the body to heal itself.

By isolating and using the body’s own growth factors, PRP Therapy offers hope to many patients, especially those suffering from long-standing musculoskeletal issues, traumatic injury or scarring. It also relieves joint pain and works amazingly well in nonsurgical cosmetic procedures to reduce sagging skin, fine lines and wrinkles.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

For our bodies to feel good and function optimally, all of our naturally occurring hormones need to operate in conjunction with each other to achieve proper balance. While some doctors use synthetic hormones to treat hormone imbalance, Dr. Guyer takes a more natural approach by only prescribing hormone treatments that are identical to what the body creates.

Patients experience fewer side effects with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, as Dr. Guyer customizes the hormone levels to relieve each patient’s specific set of symptoms and adjusts as symptoms improve. Finally say goodbye to the mood swings, fatigue, weight gain and diminished sex drive that affect us all as we age!

Peptides: Revolutionizing Medicine?

From Alzheimer’s Disease and autoimmune conditions to erectile dysfunction and weight loss, peptide therapy is a rapidly evolving realm of anti-aging medicine that promises amazing healing and restorative benefits by tapping into the body’s own chemistry.

What Exactly are Peptides?

More than 70,000 kinds of peptides reside in the body, each one carrying out a highly specific function. Peptides are a short chain of amino acids linked together that make up a small protein. They bind to the surface of cells and give targeted directions to other cells and molecules. Insulin is one of the most well-known types of peptide, but there are endless others.

The pharmaceutical market for peptide medications continues to explode in popularity as these specialized molecules deliver therapeutic value to a multitude of patients. There are around 150 peptides in clinical development and hundreds more in preclinical testing stages. In 2017 alone, the FDA approved five new peptides for clinical use to help treat diseases like diabetes and symptoms caused by GI and thyroid disorders.

The Promising Potential of Peptide Therapy

To keep up on advancements in this emerging science, I regularly attend anti-aging medical conferences and study recent developments in peptide treatments. This summer, I joined esteemed integrative doctors and scientists from around the world at the International Peptide Conference in California to learn about the latest innovations in peptide therapy.

The potential of peptides is tremendous. It’s the key to prolonging human lifespan, but more importantly, it opens an entire doorway through which we can drastically increase quality of life. Peptides redefine how we dispense medicine.

They’re naturally occurring, extremely targeted, and by tweaking biochemistry, can bring a body back into balance without the side effects or risks of traditional prescriptions. Once they’ve accomplished their mission, the body automatically recycles peptides without any accumulative or toxic affect.

How Peptides Are Administered

Peptides come in various forms and doses. Traditionally administered only by syringe, recent scientific discoveries made it possible to dispense certain peptides by oral tablet, transdermal creams and nasal sprays.

At The Guyer Institute, we administer peptides in a variety of ways and witness wonderful results. We offer peptide medications through our on-site compounding pharmacy and supplement store, and also perform PRP Therapy, which uses peptide growth factors from a patient’s own blood plasma, to rejuvenate aging skin and tissue, repair scars and even regrow hair.

If this type of medical therapy piques your interest, give us a call at The Guyer Institute today at (317) 580-9355!

Regain Balance with Bioidentical Hormones

Mood swings, fatigue, weight gain, diminished sex drive: the symptoms of hormone imbalance are as diverse as our own biochemistry. That’s why in my 20-plus years of prescribing bioidentical hormone replacement therapy I’ve always taken a personalized approach to treating hormone deficiency or dominance.

Hormone changes are a normal part of the aging process, and they don’t just affect women entering menopause. Men experience a decrease in testosterone with every passing year, leaving many feeling unmotivated, overweight, lethargic and grumpy. For women, disruptive changes in mood, metabolism and energy production start several years before even entering menopause, which can last another two to 10 years.

There’s no reason to suffer for that long, or at all, thanks to significant scientific advancements in bioidentical hormone replacement supplements, application methods and pharmaceutical compounding that have developed since our own mothers suffered from sweltering hot flashes and temperamental attitudes.

I attend annual medical conferences on bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) to stay on the cutting edge of hormone replacement research and newly available BHRT products, and learn how physicians like myself can better treat the symptoms of hormone imbalances that affect all of us at some point. I began advocating BHRT long before Oprah joined the bioidentical bandwagon, and I’ve witnessed first-hand how much better a patient feels once we get their hormones leveled out.

BHRT Compounded Creams vs. Synthetic Hormones or Pellet Therapy

All of the hormone treatments I prescribe are identical to what the body creates, so it’s a more natural and effective way to treat hormone imbalance without the side effects that often come with synthetic hormones.

People ask why we don’t offer pellet therapy at The Guyer Institute of Molecular Medicine. While also made with bioidentical hormones, pellets make it difficult to titrate the dosing as is often required when seeking the perfect balance of hormones for each individual. Pellets implanted under the skin take three to six months to wear off, so if the dosage isn’t the proper proportion of bioidentical hormones we cannot adjust it until it’s time for a new one.

The ability to customize hormone therapy to each person’s specific set of symptoms is one of the main reasons I prefer bioidentical hormones over synthetic prescriptions that come in standardized doses. We’re able to compound prescriptions on site at The Guyer Institute, so we’re able to customize a hormone cream for each patient and adjust the hormone levels to treat worsening or new symptoms. The BHRT creams come in pre-metered doses or capsules, so they’re extremely easy to use.

OTC Hormone Supplements

For people who would prefer an over-the-counter herbal medication to restore hormonal balance, we offer a number of physician-grade options in our Supplement Store. You don’t need to be a patient to shop in our store or online, and our trained staff is always happy to help you figure out which products may work best for your particular symptoms. Here’s a look at some of our most popular hormone-balancing dietary supplements:

DHEA

The most common hormone in the body, DHEA is produced by the adrenal glands and helps produce other hormones like testosterone and estrogen. Available in 5mg or 25mg doses, DHEA supplements enhance immune function and replace naturally declining DHEA levels as you age.

Estrovera

A non-hormonal supplement, Estrovera contains Turkey Rhubarb, which is clinically proven to reduce hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms. It also helps with vascular integrity, keeping blood vessels healthy and preventing vasodilation or a swelling of blood vessels that can cause dizziness, low blood pressure, heart palpitations, and other unpleasant symptoms like fluid retention.

EstroFX

Specially formulated by Dr. Dale Guyer, EstroFX can get aberrant hormone levels back in balance. It’s particularly helpful for those suffering with breast tenderness and can assist in restoration of healthy cervical tissue after an abnormal pap smear.

EstroBalance

EstroBalance can ease monthly hormone swings and PMS symptoms, such as painful periods and difficulty losing weight. This super-duty nutritional supplement supports healthy hormone balance and boosts fat metabolization to keep the extra pounds off.

Pregnenolone

This adrenal hormone regulates memory and brain function, specifically the area of the brain related to artistic function. Pregnenolone is a precursor to other hormones like DHEA, progesterone, estrogen and testosterone. Available in our store in 10mg, 50mg and 100mg capsules, this supplement can reduce inflammation, relieve some symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, and improve symptoms related to poor adrenal function.

Get Off the Hormonal Swing with Our Help

Ever wish you could say, “Stop this ride. I want to get off” when suffering on the hormonal roller coaster ride that’s robbing you of sleep, enjoyable sex, and clear thinking? At The Guyer Institute of Molecular Medicine, we offer a number of natural ways to slow your turbulent swing of emotions and energy, restoring your vibrancy and hormonal balance.

Stop by our supplement store, contact us online with your questions or give Dr. Guyer a call at (317) 580-9355 to make an appointment to discuss how BHRT can help your hormones.

You don’t need to be a patient of Dr. Guyer to take advantage of our Supplement Store, which carries a wide variety of nutritional supplements, from Vitamin A to Zinc. Here’s a look at how some of our most popular supplements can help you achieve optimal wellness.

Do I Really Need Vitamins or Nutritional Supplements?

Our modern diet, along with a lifestyle full of stress and lack of sleep, deprive us of much-needed nutrition. On top of that, our immune systems constantly battle environmental toxins like air pollution and pesticides, meaning we could all use a little boost when it comes to keeping our bodies and brains functioning at optimal levels.

Over the course of treating patients for 25-plus years, Dr. Dale Guyer only recommends premium supplements that are backed by science and his own experience as a functional M.D. One of our favorite supplements that benefits nearly everyone is a multivitamin chock full of antioxidants called SynerG.

Everyone should take a quality multivitamin but, unfortunately, so many inefficient vitamin supplements fill pharmacy shelves nowadays. SynerG not only offers the best combination of vitamins to boost your nutrient balance, it also delivers powerful antioxidants to counteract the negative effects of free radicals created by our constant exposure to toxins and stress.

Prepare Your Immune System for Cold and Flu Season

With the kids back in school, the days soon will get shorter and we all will be spending more time inside. Arm your body’s defenses with supplements that support your immune system, such as Transfer Factor, one of our top-selling products. This daily supplement promotes healthy NK (natural killer) cell levels and helps the body elevate low NK levels. NK cells do the specialized clean-up work in your immune system, taking out stressed cells infected with viruses or microbes, even cancerous cells.

Hoosiers get much less sunlight as the days get shorter, making all of us susceptible to a Vitamin D deficiency, which is one of the most common vitamin deficiencies in the world. Recent studies estimate more than 40 percent of the U.S. population doesn’t get enough Vitamin D from the sun and diet alone.

Vitamin D deficiency can increase the risk of a wide variety of health problems, from depression and fatigue to cardiovascular and autoimmune diseases, but it also opens you up to frequent infections and sickness. Boost the immune system with our Vitamin D3 5,000 IU supplement to promote proper immune function and bone health, as well as receive the added bonus of a healthy metabolism to assist with weight management.

Other Popular Vitamins and Supplements We Recommend

Protecting your heart and brain is of utmost importance when it comes to good health, so we suggest taking a quality Omega 3 fish oil supplement like the EPA/DHA-SP compound available at The Guyer Institute. It promotes healthy cardiac and brain function, reduces inflammation and can even help improve your mood.

Not all Omega 3 supplements are effective and safe, so it’s important to know how it’s made. Sourced from the Chilean coast, the cleanest coastline in the world, our product of choice is guaranteed pure and and created for maximum absorption unlike inferior over-the-counter brands.

Max Adren is another top-selling supplement in our store, and for good reason. It helps rebalance energy levels and reduces fatigue, a nagging problem that affects so many men and women, particularly when under prolonged stress. This powerful supplement blends vitamins, adaptogenic herbs and adrenal extract to promote healthy adrenal function and increase energy.

Chronic Fatigue Treatment Requires Multifaceted Approach

Everyone feels a little tired sometimes, but chronic fatigue lasts for several months and can become quite debilitating for some patients. Feeling left behind this summer and tired all the time? Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), often triggered by a combination of factors, may be what’s dragging you down.

Although there are many theories about what causes CFS, ranging from viral infections to stress, no one really knows. Signs and symptoms of chronic fatigue may include feeling tired, unable to concentrate, unexplained muscle or joint pain, unrefreshing sleep, and enlarged lymph nodes in your neck or armpits.

With more than 25 years of experience treating complex conditions like chronic fatigue, Dr. Dale Guyer, founder of The Guyer Institute of Molecular Medicine, offers a multifaceted approach to chronic fatigue treatment. He focuses on the root causes of a patient’s condition, often discovering their fatigue is caused by underlying health problems that can be treated with supplements, medication and IV vitamin therapies.

“I only wish I had tried IV therapy first rather than discover it all these years later,” says Dan, a patient who found relief from his chronic fatigue at The Guyer Institute. “Dr. Guyer and his staff gave me my life back. I had no idea what I was missing or how enjoyable life could be until I started feeling like myself again.”

What Causes Chronic Fatigue?

The cause of chronic fatigue varies widely, depending on which medical theory you believe, but it may often begin as a viral or bacterial infection the patient never fully recovers from. The root cause might also be related to fungal, parasitic or mixed infections.

Problems related to a patient’s immune system, a hormonal imbalance, and mental health problems, such as stress, depression or emotional trauma, can also trigger chronic fatigue syndrome. In addition, a patient with chronic fatigue may suffer from various micronutrient deficiencies, including not getting the right amount of magnesium, zinc and potassium in their diets.

Chronic Fatigue Treatment

Treating CFS requires a multifaceted approach, rather than just focusing on symptom relief. The conventional medical model for chronic fatigue treatment tends to focus on managing a patient’s symptoms with anti-inflammatory medications for pain relief and antidepressants for depression.

Dr. Guyer believes in adjunctive treatment of the underlying conditions, which gets to the root of the problem and helps to provide a more balanced and synergistic approach.

Patients begin with a thorough examination and discussion of their symptoms. Dr. Guyer then orders a comprehensive lab work-up, which may include blood, salvia or urinary testing. The detailed lab tests show more than just blood cell count or lipid status; they show a patient’s neurotransmitter balance, metabolism, cellular energy production, and a broader array of hormone balance and interaction. Tests can also be performed to check for toxin accumulation, if that’s a suspected factor contributing to the patient’s persistent fatigue.

Dr. Guyer’s remedies for chronic fatigue often include a combination of supplements, medication and IV vitamin therapies, depending on the patient’s diagnosis. For immune system support, The Guyer Institute recommends Transfer Factor, a supplement that supports healthy energy levels by promoting the effectiveness of your immune system. We also customize each patient’s IV vitamin therapy, which helps them directly absorb the nutrients better.

If you feel tired all the time and think you may suffer from chronic fatigue, call Dr. Guyer today to make an appointment and we’ll get you on the road to feeling happier, healthier and more energized.

Is Your Dad Healthy? Tips to Improve Men’s Health

Happy Father’s Day to all of those dads out there who work tirelessly, play with gusto, and passionately embrace life with pure joy. On the other hand, if your father or husband seems tired all of the time, unmotivated to play or exercise, and generally finds less enjoyment lately, it may be time to investigate why.

As men age, testosterone and other hormone levels decline about 10 percent each year starting in their 30s. Even though it’s a gradual decline, men start to gain weight, become lethargic and less motivated, and begin to notice a decrease in their libido. Instead of chalking up low testosterone to the natural process of aging, The Guyer Institute of Molecular Medicine works with men to heal their body from the inside out, so they gain more energy to enjoy life.

Here are 3 ways to improve men’s nutrition and boost low energy:

Proper Nutrition for Men

Good nutrition may not be at the top of your dad’s to-do list, especially when he’s busy being the superhero, handyman, and jack-of-all-trades for everyone in your family.

While low testosterone can affect a man’s energy levels, it also can impact bone and muscle health, sperm production and hair growth. Eating foods high in Vitamin D and zinc, such as tuna, egg yolks and beans, improves men’s nutrition and helps to naturally boost testosterone levels.

For busy dads on-the-go, we also suggest adding SynerG Pro to the diet. This potent multivitamin for men, which also works as an antioxidant, helps to fill the gaps in men’s nutrition. Available in The Guyer Institute supplement store, this plant-based protein powder provides balanced macronutrients with no added gluten, dairy or soy. Use it as a great meal replacement to improve energy, mood and cholesterol levels.

Energy Supplements for Busy Dads

Does the sheer number of energy-boosting supplements on the market today leave you feeling overwhelmed and exhausted? At The Guyer Institute and Synergy Spa, we know which supplements work best to bolster diet deficiencies, support a stronger immune system and promote better health.

If Dad is feeling run down and fatigued, Max Adren might be the answer. This supplement offers a powerful blend of vitamins, adaptogenic herbs and adrenal extract, all of which function synergistically to strengthen the body’s stress response and support healthy energy levels.

Dad need a little pampering and rejuvenation?
Check out a multitude of spa treatments, from facials to fillers, available at Synergy Spa.

Combined with eating a better diet to promote weight loss, taking the right supplements and best multivitamins for men can dramatically improve energy levels. Contact our knowledgeable supplement store staff for more ideas or to answer any questions. We’re here to help.

Male Hormone Replacement Therapy

As dads age, hormones change and men may experience fatigue, low energy, decreased sex drive, depressed mood, and difficulties with concentration and memory. Restoring testosterone and other hormones to an optimal level can substantially improve overall health and wellness.

Testosterone levels can be boosted naturally with changes to diet and exercise, such as reducing sugar intake, eating healthy saturated fats, and engaging in high-intensity exercise or strength training. When natural remedies don’t work, however, it may be time to consider hormone replacement therapy.

At The Guyer Institute, we offer bioidentical hormone replacement therapy using a prescription compound made from a source of yams or soybeans. Bioidentical HRT works to adequately balance all of a man’s hormones, including testosterone, estrogen, and DHEA, for optimal health.

If you suspect hormonal imbalance affects the quality of life for your father or husband, encourage them to contact Dr. Dale Guyer today to schedule an appointment. We understand all men are busy and often use that as an excuse to put off getting help for themselves. Tell him we offer convenient, in-office blood tests, and Dr. Guyer can formulate a prescription based on the results that you can pick up in our store or get mailed to your home. He might even send you a card next Father’s Day.

Sip, Shop and Say Goodbye To Wrinkles

In need of a fun night? Join us June 6^th for Sip, Shop and Say Bye Bye to Wrinkles! CEO of Synergy Spa, Denise Kaler said “Our last event was so much fun! We know this one in June will be exciting, adding the element of being able to shop, as well as receive rejuvenation treatments.”

When you arrive, grab snacks and a glass of wine and enjoy the healing garden located outside the Synergy Spa.

Once you are ready to part with the wrinkles, ask our Synergy Spa staff about special pricing on Botox, Xeomin, Restylane as well as Fire & Ice Facials.

Spa Injections:

BOTOX and Xeomin temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe forehead lines, frown lines between the brows and severe crow’s feet in adults. The active ingredient in BOTOX and Xeomin acts on nerve endings in muscle to prevent muscle fibers from contracting. By reducing these contractions, it can temporarily reduce the wrinkles between your brows.

Restylane is used to restore volume lost to aging, creating a more youthful appearance. Restylane can be used in facial areas such as cheeks, mouth/nose folds, lips and even around the eyes.

The Fire & Ice Facial leaves your skin cleaner, clearer, softer and transformed. This facial helps clear clogged pores, quench parched skin and remove dead cells. The slight massage included in this treatment, aids in blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. As a result, the facial muscles are more relaxed, which can slow the onset of wrinkles on the face.

Get Leaner In Those Stubborn Spots Where Fat Finds a Home

So many of us who exercise modestly or more to keep our weight down still can’t successfully tackle the common trouble spots where fat collects. LipoLean can.

We can be in pretty good shape, but still have unwanted bulges around our waist and abdomen, our hips and thighs, even under our arms and under our chins. It can be more than frustrating.

LipoLean can reduce the frustration…and the fat. It’s a non-surgical, safe alternative to liposuction, and it serves to boost the exercise and diet modifications you are already making.

And we know you’ll like the way you look!

A series of LipoLean injections containing a carefully calibrated mix of nutrients can target excess fatty cells, dissolve them so they flow freely and help you burn energy, detoxify and cleanse your liver, and increase metabolism.

At The Guyer Institute of Molecular Medicine, it’s a recipe for faster fat-burning. On average, two to four pounds a week of weight loss can be achieved over the course of your treatment.

Laurie Wakerley is our receptionist. She says she lost nearly seven pounds her first week after beginning the LipoLean micro-injection regimen.

“I was so happy to see those results so quickly, “Laurie said. “It’s not magic; it’s science. Better metabolism and breakdown of fat cells gave me fewer inches and more energy!”

Laurie stresses that you can’t just stop healthy eating and end your exercising, yet still expect to see changes. LipoLean keeps your healthier lifestyle on track by motivating you. When your appearance thins in those hard-to-reach spots, the drive to keep it off is great.

At Synergy Spa of The Guyer Institute, Trish Wozniak, PA-C, does our LipoLean consultations, recommends the nutrients, minerals and amino acids that will work most effectively, and then shows you how to do the injections.

They are not painful, nor is there any downtime associated with LipoLean.

“Women and men both can benefit from this exciting way to metabolize more efficiently in the areas where fat gets stored,” Wozniak said. “I explain how the nutrients will work, handle their questions and concerns as they move through the series of injections, and, of course, monitor patients’ adherence and progress closely.”

You’re not out there “on your own” with LipoLean. Usually, we hear from Synergy Spa patients who can’t believe how much better they look and feel!

Three of the nutrients commonly utilized in the LipoLean program are leusine, methionine, and inositol. Together, they maximize fat-burning effects and help ensure that the liver is operating at peak efficiency.

There are other potential benefits to a diversified LipoLean injection plan. “Research indicates that cardiovascular health can sometimes be improved,” Wozniak said. “As well, the injections can help stabilize moods and keep hormones better balanced.”

At Synergy Spa of The Guyer Institute, this holistic approach to your health is why patients keep coming to see us for treatments and products year after year.

Your hips, rear, stomach, thighs, and other areas where the flesh is just too darn fleshy…can look better with LipoLean. That’s our mission: safe self-improvement for the women and men who walk in our door desiring change.

Food Allergy And Sensitivity Testing Tied To Better Health

Food allergies and sensitivities can frequently aggravate health problems and often those affected may not realize their health may improve substantially with some relatively simple dietary modifications. Some estimates suggest that these reactions may affect up to 20% of the population.

At The Guyer Institute and Synergy Spa we have come to appreciate the importance of food allergy testing, evaluation and treatment.

We go beyond straightforward skin prick blood testing for reactions to foods such as peanuts or dairy. These classic IgE immune tests are valuable for immediate or acute allergic reactions, but may not provide a complete diagnostic for delayed type hypersensitivity that may be mediated by the IgG immune system subclass.

Many experts believe that close to 80% of people with marked food sensitivity problems deal with delayed symptoms that stem from a subset of the immune system called IgG.

These food sensitivities can take 72 hours to develop and have been associated with ongoing fatigue, mental focusing difficulties, attention deficit disorder, chronic irritable bowel syndrome, chronic infections and inflammation, joint pain, and even hormone imbalances.

At The Guyer Institute, we frequently work with Alletess Labs and their state-of-the-art regimens to get patients tested for reactions to as many as 96 different common foods. It is critical to know the full range of possibilities in order to rule out those not involved in negative health consequences.

“It is amazing just how prevalent significant food sensitivity is in the general population,” said Dale Guyer, MD, founder of The Guyer Institute and Synergy Spa. “There is no one size fits all allergy problem or test – we see remarkable differences among people based on body chemistry, stress levels, and organic responses that you can’t identify until you remove that food from the diet.”

Guyer says that variations of foods within dairy, eggs, glutens, cheeses, soy and some fruits can cause a sharp sensitivities that contribute to serious conditions.

Testing we call for can lead our experts to recommend changes in diet – some subtle, some significant – that may cause a decrease in headaches and migraines, weight loss, enhanced metabolism, enhanced functioning of the immune system, less GI disturbance, diminished irritable bowel syndrome, a decrease in pain, and improved neuro-cognitive function.

“Knowledge is power, “ Guyer says. “The studies we generate for patients give us ammunition to stimulate better health and quality of life.”

The Guyer Institute is also on the forefront of using herbal or natural antihistamine remedies for immediate allergic responses.

We utilize treatments that our expertise and experience tell us are most likely to work. Food allergies and sensitivities can inflict a damaging toll, and we’re here to help tackle these health effects with you.
