Which Food Allergy / Chemical Sensitivity Test is right for you?
Metametrix IgG Food Allergy/Intolerance Test:
The IgG4 antibodies test identifies non-atopic or "delayed" food allergy reactions. These are the most common form of food intolerances. IgG blocks the potentially dangerous IgE reactions. IgG are harder to find then IgE because they are "delayed" food reactions which can occur hours or even 24 hours after a food is injested. The IgG test is for 90 foods and can be done through a blood draw or a blood spot.
Metametrix IgE Food Allergy Test:
IgE measures specific immune response to a food that is causing an "immediate" food allergy reaction. The IgE test is for 30 foods. This test requires a blood draw.
ALCAT Food Allergy Test / Chemical Sensitivity Test:
This test measures the immune systems response to food, chemcials and molds. The body's response to the food or chemcials is inflammation. Alcat measures leukocyte cellular reactivity in whole blood. The Alcat test can check up to 200 foods, 20 chemicals and molds. This test requires a blood draw.
Delayed Food intolerances affect over 80% of the population while less than 5% of people actually have IgE food allergies. Skin tests, RAST,or IgE blood tests do not detect delayed food allergies. They only measure the release of histamine or the presence of allergen specific IgE molecules.
Gluten Intolerance:
A gluten intolerance begins to show up in the stool or the saliva. As the seriousness of the conditions increases it will then show up in the blood. We offer the Metametrix: Gluten/Chemistries Stool Panel & their Gluten Intolerance Saliva Kit for easy testing.
Many of today's health challenges are linked to food sensitivities. When foods contributing to food allergy symptoms are continually ingested, the body eventually revolts which results in “allergic” symptoms. The body recognizes certain foods as strange, hostile invaders and it reacts in an allergic manner. Some food sensitivity symptoms are: migraines, fibromyalgia and chronic pain, fatigue, insomnia, gastrointestinal disorders, eczema, hyperactivity, constant sinus congestion or weakened immune system, ADHD/ADD, premature aging, asthma and even obesity.
A delayed food intolerance / food sensitivity test is a great way to learn which foods you need to eliminate from your diet to feel better quickly!
