Introduction to Food Sensitivity Testing

Recent surveys indicate that many people are affected by food sensitivity without realising it.
 
Although not life threatening it can cause very unpleasant ongoing symptoms. The symptoms of food intolerances can last for days, months or years and it is often difficult to identify the problematic foods.
New For 2008
As part of the food intolerance combined test which is 81 foods plus 29 vitamins and minerals we are adding a digestive enzyme and amino acid deficiency test at no extra charge

Are your children driving you crazy with disruptive and unruly behaviour? Do not always blame the TV or computer games or lack of exercise. It could be what he or she is eating. Our test can help! Food Intolerance test

What is the difference between allergy and sensitivity?

A food allergy occurs when the immune system reacts, sometimes quite violently, to certain foods causing much distress to the body. Peanuts, nuts, shellfish and fish are common life long allergies. If you know you have a reaction to any food then do not eat it! The body creates certain antibodies so that the next time that food is eaten it releases many chemicals to protect the body. This would include histamine. These chemicals can then cause the body to show allergic reactions such as  vomiting,  stomach pains, rashes, swelling of the throat which can cause difficulty in breathing and possibly anaphylactic shock which in turn can lead to hospitalisation or even death. Allergy testing today is usually done through a blood test.
A food sensitivity or intolerance is an adverse reaction to food that does not involve the immune system. For instance, a person with lactose intolerance is someone who lacks an enzyme that is required to digest milk sugar so that when that person eats or drinks milk products, the reaction is possibly bloating, wind or abdominal discomfort.
 
The "Vega" Food Sensitivity Intolerance Test using nutriMARK.
The Vega test machine is one of the most popular developments in food sensitivity testing. It was developed in Germany and is used to measure changes in body resistance. It is completely non-invasive and painless. If you move to Where and When on this web site, you can see that I cover most parts of Essex where a test can be done including Southend Romford Corringham Chelmsford Colchester Rayleigh and Clacton.
