The food profiles present on this site are the ones used by all of the centers that are certified by the SMA in Milan, in association with a DRIA test for studying food intolerances.

The profiles are generally given to patients in accordance with dietary prescriptions given by their doctor (whom they should consult for any clarification).

Regardless of the test that gave evidence of a food intolerance, the rotational diet is the fundamental instrument available to us for recovering tolerance. We are convinced that the dietary therapy must always be monitored by an specialized doctor during the entire course of the process.

The profiles that are listed here are regularly updated and remain the editorial property of SMA Srl. They are placed at the disposal of the doctors on the condition that they cite the ownership of SMA Srl upon their use.

These documents reflect our clinical experience and research study in the area of food intolerances.

The objectives of a correct dietary therapy are the following:

• help regain tolerance of foods that are not tolerated;
• avoid dangerous elimination diets, useful only in the case of a classic allergy, that is, a high level IgE value;
• take into account social interaction and the pleasure of eating by way of a rotational diet that provides for days that are diet-free.

The following articles provide important information on the profiles:

• The diet for regaining tolerance
• Information on the DRIA test and on the ALCAT test; 
• The guidelines that are applied in all of the DRIA Centers

Also, please feel free to contact one of the Italian DRIA centers.
