Allergy Tests
An allergen is a substance which comes in contact with your body and causes a reaction such as sneezing, itchy skin, or wheezing. In severe cases it may cause breathing difficulties or an anaphylactic shock where your body shuts down. The body’s immune system looks upon the allergen as an invader in a similar way it reacts to bacteria and viruses. It produces antibodies to attack the allergen which causes the release of a substance called histamine. It is histamine which leads to the allergic symptoms.

Food Intolerance Tests
Food Intolerance is a reaction to food that may cause unpleasant symptoms and is associated with a host of chronic conditions. Food intolerance is unlikely to be life threatening.
While less than 2% of the population suffer from food allergies, it is estimated that more than 20% of the population suffer from food intolerance. It can affect anyone at any age, but since symptoms often occur some time after the food has been eaten it can be difficult to find the problem food without the use of advanced laboratory testing.

The majority of food intolerances are a result of an immune response to foods and may have developed because of poor digestion, dysbiosis, Candidiasis, parasites, intestinal infections, a poorly balanced diet, alcohol consumption, or the effects of drugs and medications.
