Food Sensitivity Test
Food Sensitivity TestWho should take this test? Do you ever feel like you may have certain symptoms related to foods, such as headaches, stomach pain, diarrhea, or fatigue? You want to try eliminating possible triggers, but you are not sure where to start?
Our Food Sensitivity tests measure your body's immune response to 96 foods that are commonly found in western diets.
Unlike a true food allergy or severe medical conditions like celiac disease, an antibody IgG immune response has been demonstrated to offer guidance on what foods may be the best to eliminate. Rather than randomly eliminating foods over many months and assessing your change in symptoms, as improvement in symptoms is always the best test, you can have a directed elimination plan. This test is not a food allergy test. Food allergy tests measure IgE antibodies, which require a larger volume of blood and thus can't be currently taken at home. This test also cannot diagnose Celiac Disease.
Many times food can trigger an immune response which manifests itself in physical symptoms such as:
What will my results tell me?Your results will tell you how reactive your IgG antibodies are to 96 foods commonly found in western diets.
Each food will have a rating of Class 0 (low reactivity) all the way to Class 3 (High reactivity).
How accurate is this test?Our test is very accurate, and if you have any level of IgG reactivity to certain foods, our test will detect that.
IgG antibodies are naturally broken down by your body if they aren't being used; therefore, some people who have eliminated foods from their diet for long periods of time may not have any elevated IgG reactivity to report, but that does not mean your IgG reactivity would have measured the same had you still been consuming the symptom provoking foods you previously removed.
Additionally, you may have an elevated reactivity to a food that you do not consume as a result of cross reactivity to other allergy provoking substances you are exposed to in the environment or as a result of ingesting ingredients in processed foods that you did not realize were actually a particular food.
What guidance will I get along with my results?Farmergirl Fresh Labs will provide tailored advice about what to do next. While reactivity does not always equate with symptoms, it can help prioritize the elimination of certain foods. Once you have your IgG test results, you can try an elimination diet of your choosing until you achieve the right balance of minimizing your symptoms while maintaining a lifestyle that you enjoy.
You may choose to not stop eating certain foods forever, but knowing your reactivity might lead to adjustments in how much or frequently you eat it. Gluten sensitivity for example, is a common concern and depending on your results, you may want to decrease the amount of gluten in your diet.
This test is a great place to start if you want to dig into your body's relationship with food and is much more affordable than comparable tests.
