Our tests are defined as non-ige-mediated. Also referred to food sensitivity or food intolerance tests.

The main nuance between an intolerance and an allergy is that an allergy will manifest itself almost immediately after inhalation or consumption of a particular substance.

Food intolerances, on the other hand, are more deceptive. Depending on the individual, symptoms may arrive anywhere between a couple of hours to a couple of days. While symptoms of food sensitivity vary. But the symptoms of intolerance are all digestive-related.

Yes, depending on the severity and type of allergy. Many allergies can be greatly diminished through immunotherapy; a build-up of the body’s immune system response to the specific allergens.

Hair stores DNA type information that gives valuable information pertaining to the cellular changes that would occur within our bodies secondary to exposure to certain allergens. Therefore, if you have never eaten a particular item, it may still show up on your report. In addition, an over consumption of a particular item can also register as an intolerance.

While you may not think you’ve ever eaten a particular food, it is still possible that the protein found in that food was included into some processed good that you’ve previously consumed.

Because we tests your reaction to individual food proteins, it is possible that your body is intolerant to the protein found in gluten while still testing negative for the protein found in barley, oat, wheat or spelt. Still, since these items contain gluten, it is recommended that you avoid them.

Unfortunately, the lab can not send the entire list of items that we test for. You can refer back to the list of items tested on the website if you want to see the list of items tested against. If you do not see the item on your report, then you did not register an intolerance to that item.
