Is This Intensive For You?

Built for practitioners who are ready to go deeper.

This is not a continuing education credit. It is a focused 3-hour clinical conversation designed to change how you see every food reaction patient who walks through your door — regardless of what specialty they came to you for.

✓  This is for you if...
You are a nutrition or integrative health practitioner whose most complex patients have food reactions alongside chronic, multi-system symptoms
You already suspect there is a pattern you do not have the framework to read
Your patients' food sensitivity lists are complicating your protocols and you want to understand what is driving them
You already take a root-cause approach and want to add the layer most frameworks are missing
You are open to seeing food reactions as information rather than obstacles
✗  This is not for you if...
You are looking for meal planning templates or elimination diet protocols
You want a passive webinar with no clinical depth
You are not open to a framework that challenges conventional allergy management
You are looking for a clinical diagnosis tool rather than a pattern-recognition methodology
The Session Outline

Three hours. A completely different clinical picture.

The session runs 9am–12pm PST on Zoom with live Q&A built in throughout. Dr. Alexis walks through the Food Reaction Syndrome™ theory and FoodClues® methodology in one intensive morning, building from foundational clinical reframes to the pattern-recognition framework you can apply with your current caseload the same week.

Hour
1
9:00 – 10:00am PST
The Clinical Gap — What Standard Allergy Management Is Missing and Why
Standard allergy testing captures IgE-mediated reactivity at one point in time. This hour covers what that means clinically — why a negative panel doesn't rule out a real reaction, why food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities are not three separate conditions but severity grades on one spectrum, and how the Food Reaction Syndrome™ theory reframes everything. This is the foundation your patients' confusion is built on — and the starting point for addressing it.
Hour
2
10:00 – 11:00am PST
The Drivers — Hormones, Acid Metabolism, and the Systems Most Protocols Miss
Two of the most clinically significant drivers of food reactivity are almost entirely absent from conventional management plans. This hour covers the estrogen-histamine feedback loop and why estrogen elimination is the core issue rather than production, the role of cortisol in lowering immunological threshold, and acid load as a direct factor in allergic response severity. Each driver is addressed with the clinical evidence behind it and what it means for the patients on your caseload right now.
Hour
3
11:00am – 12:00pm PST
FoodClues® in Practice — Reading the Pattern, Sequencing the Support, Q&A
FoodClues® maps food avoidances, reactions, and cravings against their biochemical fingerprints to identify which internal systems are most burdened — and in what order they need support. This hour introduces the methodology through real clinical case studies, explains how the four driver categories operate, and connects the morning into a practical framework you can begin applying immediately. Followed by open Q&A with Dr. Alexis — bring your cases.
What This Morning Gives You

The clinical layer most root-cause frameworks are missing.

Every concept in this intensive is immediately applicable to patients you are already working with.

Why food lists are clinical data

Every food a patient avoids has a biochemical fingerprint. Those fingerprints cluster into patterns pointing to specific body systems under strain. FoodClues® gives you the framework to read them.

How to identify patterns across a food list

When multiple foods in a patient's reaction history share the same internal system demand, that overlap is a signal. This session teaches you to see it — and name it clinically.

The hormone and acid drivers in practice

The estrogen-histamine loop and acid metabolism are two of the most clinically significant drivers of food reactivity — and the two most consistently absent from conventional management plans.

Why sequence matters as much as intervention

Most protocols stall not because they are wrong but because they go in the wrong order. FoodClues® follows the body's natural sequence and teaches you to do the same.

Where FoodClues® fits what you already do

This is not a replacement for your existing approach — and it does not ask you to practice outside your scope. It is the pattern-recognition layer most root-cause frameworks are missing.

How to bring this into your practice immediately

Every concept introduced in this intensive maps directly to patients you are already working with. You will leave with a framework you can apply to your next food reaction case — not someday, the same week.

Investment

One morning that changes how you see every patient you work with.

One registration. Three hours of live clinical teaching. Live Q&A with Dr. Alexis Sams. Plus the FoodClues® Decoder to use with your patients immediately.

Your Instructor

Dr. Alexis Sams, PT, DPT

Dr. Alexis is the founder of Sovara Health Systems and the creator of FoodClues® — a clinical pattern-recognition methodology developed over years of working with patients who had been told that avoidance was the only answer to their food reactions.

Her background began in orthopedic physical therapy. A clear sense of calling led her into functional medicine, where she began connecting food reactions to internal system patterns in a way conventional medicine was not designed to address. That work produced the Food Reaction Syndrome™ theory — a clinical reframe that positions food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities as severity grades within one syndrome driven by identifiable causes.

Every food-to-system mapping in FoodClues® came from real clinical cases. That experience is now a teachable methodology. This intensive is the first step in learning it.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know before you register.

What clinical backgrounds is this designed for?
This intensive is designed for nutrition and integrative health practitioners — any clinician whose most complex patients have food reactions, chronic inflammation, or multi-system symptoms that have not resolved under conventional care. No prior exposure to FRS™ or FoodClues® is required.
Is this a continuing education course?
Not at this time. This is a clinical teaching session and methodology introduction, not an accredited CE course. CE accreditation — CDR priority for RDs — is part of the roadmap as the Sovara Health Institute program grows.
What if I cannot attend live?
Replay access is included for all registered attendees. The live Q&A at the end is a significant part of the value, so we encourage attending live when possible — but you will not miss the core teaching if you cannot make it.
What comes after the Bootcamp?
Practitioners who want to go deeper have a clear path. The FRS™ Clinician Certification is an 8-month cohort-based program — a 2-day live intensive followed by 6 monthly integration sessions — that confers the Food Reaction Specialist, FRS™ Certified credential. That is a clinical identity you can practice and market from, built around the patients your most complex cases represent. The FoodClues® Clinician Portal is also coming — a purpose-built practice tool for clinicians trained in the methodology. Both details will be shared after the Bootcamp. The intensive is complete on its own — there is no pressure to continue.
