Report
Food intolerance is a condition in which the body cannot properly digest certain foods. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including allergies, sensitivities, and food poisoning. Many people mistakenly believe that they have food intolerances based on vague symptoms such as diarrhea or bloating. Food intolerance testing is an important way to screenings for other conditions such as celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Testing can also help identify specific foods that may cause problems for some individuals.
The Food Intolerance Test (Specific IgG for 150+ Foods) measures the amount of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies in your blood for a wide range of 150 foods. This test is used to identify potential food sensitivities that may be causing chronic symptoms like digestive issues, fatigue, headaches, or skin problems. These symptoms can appear hours or even days after consuming the food you’re sensitive to. By identifying these potential triggers, the test can help develop an elimination diet to see if symptoms improve when certain foods are removed.
