Food Intolerance
Food Intolerance Test
Feeling bloated or cramping after meals, struggling with unexplained headaches, or dealing with persistent fatigue, constipation or diarrhoea? These are just a few of the many signs of a food sensitivity — a reaction your body has to certain foods, even ones you eat regularly or crave.
The Food Detective™ test is a rapid screening tool that helps identify these problem foods by detecting IgG antibodies in a small sample of blood. The test can assess sensitivities to 59 common foods, all within a clinic setting. It does not identify IgE-mediated food allergies or provide information about coeliac disease, enzyme deficiencies such as lactose, histamine, tyramine or alcohol intolerance or other chemical sensitivities. IgE food allergic reactions are instant and may be life threatening, whereas IgG food sensitivities may take up to 72 hours to appear so culprit foods are more difficult to detect.
Food Detective™ tests your reaction to the following foods:
Using just a quick finger-prick, Food Detective™ delivers results in as little as 40 minutes, enabling precise, personalised dietary recommendations to be made based on your unique immune response. The results will help identify foods to be temporarily eliminated, and which should be reduced or rotated and also provide ideas for replacement foods.
Like any diagnostic test, Food Detective™ will only produce meaningful results if you are experiencing symptoms. Bear in mind, some symptoms of food sensitivity could be due to other health issues as not all symptoms are food related and can be caused by other triggers. For example, a poor diet, the effects of medication or enzyme deficiency so it’s important to see your doctor to rule these out.
Simple, safe, accurate and fast.
