Dr. Alexis Sams,
PT
A physical therapist turned food reactivity specialist, Dr. Alexis built the only pattern-based method that looks under the hood of food allergies and intolerances — and teaches your body to stop reacting at the source.

Clinical Practice
She Didn't Find This Method.
She Built It.
After years as a physical therapist, Dr. Alexis kept noticing something that didn't fit the standard clinical model: her most complex patients — the ones with layered, multi-system symptoms — had food reactions running underneath everything else. And no one was connecting the dots.
Conventional allergy testing flagged a handful of foods. Elimination diets helped some people temporarily. But neither explained why the body was reacting, or what to do about it beyond permanent avoidance.
So she spent years pulling together functional medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, genomics, and gut physiology into a single pattern-recognition system — one that reads the body's clues instead of just listing its complaints. That system became FoodClues™.
A Method Built on
Pattern, Not Guesswork
Most food allergy approaches tell you what to avoid. FoodClues™ tells you why your body is reacting — and gives you a sequenced path to change it.
Read the Pattern,
Not Just the Reaction
FoodClues™ maps your symptom clusters, avoidance history, and system load into a coherent picture — one that standard IgE testing can't produce.
Support the System
That's Under Strain
Food reactions don't happen in isolation. The method identifies which underlying systems — digestive, immune, hormonal, nervous — need support first.
Conquer the Reaction.
Not Just Manage It.
As the body stabilizes, many clients find their relationship with food changes. The goal is never permanent restriction — it's genuine freedom.
Your food reactions aren't the problem. They're the clues. And once you know how to read them — everything changes.— Dr. Alexis Sams, PT · Founder, Sovara Health Systems
Trained Across Disciplines.
Focused on One Goal.
Dr. Alexis draws from a deliberately wide clinical education — because food reactivity sits at the intersection of multiple body systems, no single specialty can hold the whole picture.
