A food intolerance test will allow a person to identify and eliminate key allergens, so that inflammation can be reduced and the gut lining and body can be given the opportunity to heal.
There are two types of tests:
-
Food Print
Food and Drink (208 Foods)
Why is it important to take the food intolerance test?
When food particles enter the bloodstream, the immune system may sometimes identify them as foreign and produces IgG antibodies to attack the particular food in question.
Many people these days assume that they have food allergies, however, in most cases what they actually have is food intolerance.
The difference between the two is that an allergy is a severe almost immediate reaction to a food with symptoms that can range from difficulty breathing, rashes, swelling, runny nose, and in some cases, life-threatening anaphylactic shock.
Intolerances on the other hand are characterized by a delayed response which will normally be a few hours or in some rare cases can take up to a week to show. Various studies have shown that allergies only affect about 3% of the population whilst food intolerances can affect approximately 40% of the population at some time in their life.
The response of the immune system can cause inflammation. This inflammation can trigger troublesome symptoms, which may persist if they are neglected.
