Please view the full list of Food and Drink Intolerance Test Ingredients below for the intolerances currently covered by the Food and Drink Intolerance Test.

A food intolerance can occur when the body has difficulty digesting certain foods. When this occurs over time, large food particles (proteins) may enter the blood stream and this can cause inflammation.

When foods and drinks are digested, the proteins within them are broken down into smaller fragments for easy absorption into the body.  Larger fragments can pass through without breaking down, and sometimes the body reacts by attacking them using antibodies called Immunoglobulin G’s (IgG).

A food-specific IgG reaction should not be confused with food allergies, nor other types of food intolerances, which we do not test for. These include enzyme deficiencies e.g. lactose (milk sugar) intolerance, Coeliac disease requiring lifelong avoidance of gluten, chemical sensitivities e.g. histamine, tyramine, sulphites etc

Food intolerance can cause a wide range of disruptive symptoms such as digestive problems, eczema, migraines and headaches, fatigue, depression and low mood, joint pains and sinusitis.

A food allergy can cause a life-threatening condition called anaphylaxis. This is when released chemicals act on the blood vessels to cause swelling. Food allergies normally appear instantly and up to two hours after consumption.

* We define Food Intolerance as a food-specific IgG reaction. Our information is intended to provide nutritional advice for dietary optimisation. We recommend that you discuss food intolerance symptoms with a GP before undertaking a Food & Drink Intolerance Test. This is to fully investigate the potential causes which may include investigations for coeliac disease and/or lactose intolerance and provide the medical follow up required.
