The 60 Food Intolerance Test measures IgG antibody responses in the blood to evaluate immune reactions to different foods. Unlike allergies (IgE-mediated), food intolerance reactions are usually delayed and chronic.
A venous blood sample is analyzed against 60 common foods (dairy, grains, eggs, seafood, fruits, vegetables, etc.). Results are interpreted together with clinical history to guide dietary adjustments.
Q1: What is the difference between food intolerance and allergy?
A: Allergy (IgE-mediated) causes immediate and severe reactions, while intolerance (IgG-related) is usually delayed and chronic.
Q2: Does the test directly show which foods must be avoided?
A: Results highlight potential trigger foods. Doctors will advise based on both test results and clinical symptoms.
Q3: How often should I repeat the test?
A: It is recommended if symptoms persist after dietary changes, to monitor immune response over time.
