At Biohawk Australia, we use natural enzymes from ginger spices to break down the proteins and carbohydrates that cause these issues. Discover how our innovative solutions can help you manage and overcome food intolerance and allergies for a healthier, happier life.
The history of food intolerance and allergy is intertwined with the evolution of humans and other organisms. As viruses and bacteria developed proline-rich proteins to resist digestion, humans evolved immunity genes like HLA DQ2/DQ8 to recognize these proteins. Over time, modern agricultural practices introduced new challenges. The advent of agribusiness 10,000 years ago brought grains such as wheat, corn, and rice into our diets. Wheat, in particular, contains proline-rich gluten proteins that are resistant to digestion, leading to increased food intolerance and autoimmune diseases in populations with the HLA DQ2/DQ8 gene. Historical diets focused more on meat and less on these grains, resulting in fewer issues related to food intolerance.
Viruses and bacteria resist digestion and invade hosts due to their proline-rich membrane proteins.
Plants developed proline-rich proteins to deter animals, and they can over-stimulate the immune system and harm health.
While corn and rice proteins are mostly harmless, wheat’s proline-rich gluten can over-stimulate the immune system in those with the HLA DQ2/DQ8 gene.
People with an immunity gene different to HLA DQ2/DQ8 do not have a risk of food intolerance and autoimmune diseases from proline-rich proteins but their health is adversely affected by their failure to digest plant-based foods’ proline-rich proteins with their encapsulated energy, minerals and vitamins before entry to the large intestine where bacterial fermentation of the nutrients causes the pH to drop below 6.2 killing-off good bacteria that need neutral pH for cultivation, allowing bad bacteria to dominate and produce toxins that impact adversely on health.
Migrations of peoples around the world mixed the HLA DQ2/DQ8 gene back into “western” populations.
In Australia, before the arrival of western people with their wheat flour and alcohol, the original people were classical stone-age people: very fit and healthy. Many people with Celtic blood were brought or freely came to Australia since 1788. People from Asia, the Americas, Africa, Italy, Greece and the Middle East with the HLA DQ2/DQ8 gene migrated here. They have passed on their immunity gene very successfully so that over 30% of the Australian population has the HLA DQ2/DQ8 gene and in some regions it is much higher than 30%.
Common symptoms of food intolerance include bloating, gas, diarrhea, constipation, stomach pain, and nausea. Unlike food allergies, these symptoms are generally less severe but can still significantly impact daily life and wellbeing.
Managing food intolerance involves identifying and avoiding trigger foods, maintaining a balanced diet, and possibly using enzyme supplements to aid digestion. Keeping a food diary can help pinpoint specific intolerances, and consulting with healthcare professionals is recommended for personalized advice.
To achieve a healthy life and protect against food intolerance, allergies, and autoimmune diseases, individuals must either follow a strict Paleo diet or use Biohawk Australia’s technology to digest proline-rich proteins.
