Testing for food intolerance is easy. At eternalbeign, we use Food Detective™, blood test for food antibodies (IgG), to identify if and which antibodies are linked to inflammatory conditions in the body.

During the test, we take a small blood sample from a finger prick and dilute it and add it to the tray. With detector and developer solutions, we identify the presence of food antibodies through the appearance of one or more blue spots on the tray. Then with the help of the food layout plan, we can identify which foods produce antibodies. 

Once identified, you can eliminate the trigger foods from your diet. This practically means avoiding consumption of the foods or ingredients that your body has difficulty digesting or processing.

Eliminating trigger foods involves being mindful of the ingredients in the foods you eat and making conscious choices to avoid those that cause symptoms or reactions. This may require reading food labels carefully and avoiding foods that contain the identified trigger ingredient. By removing these problem foods from your diet, you can alleviate the discomfort and improve your overall well-being., and quality of life.

Food intolerance can manifest in various symptoms, which may vary from person to person. The symptoms can range from mild discomfort to more severe reactions. Here are some common symptoms associated with food intolerance:

• Digestive issues
• Nausea and vomiting
• Headaches or migraines
• Skin problems
• Fatigue and lethargy
• Joint pain and muscle aches
• Mood changes

Food intolerances can have multiple causes, which include deficiencies in enzymes necessary for processing certain substances, difficulties in metabolising specific chemicals found in foods, and sensitivities to various additives present in food products. Additionally, the presence of gastrointestinal disorders or diseases is often linked to the development of food intolerances.

Yes, food sensitivities have the potential to go away or decrease over time. Unlike food allergies, which typically persist throughout a person’s life, food sensitivities can be transient and may change over time.

Once you have identified your trigger foods, it is advisable to eliminate them from your regular diet and replace them with healthy and nutritious alternatives. By doing so, you provide an opportunity for your gut to heal without the triggering foods causing inflammation. However, it is important to maintain a balanced diet and not completely remove problem foods without substituting them with other options that offer similar nutritional value.

After an appropriate period of time, you can gradually reintroduce the eliminated foods in small amounts while closely monitoring for the return of symptoms. Many individuals find that, after a break from their trigger foods, they can safely incorporate them back into their diet without experiencing adverse effects. The key lies in initially identifying the specific trigger foods, which eliminates the guesswork and enables you to make informed dietary choices.

Continuing to consume foods that you are intolerant to can have negative consequences for your health. It can lead to ongoing discomfort and a range of symptoms, as well as potential long-term effects. 

For example, repeated exposure to trigger foods can trigger an immune response, leading to chronic low-grade inflammation and potentially compromising the immune system’s ability to function optimally. Additionally, eating food you’re intolerant to can worsen existing symptoms and potentially contribute to the development of additional health issues, such as migraines, skin problems, fatigue, or joint pain. 

That’s why food intolerance testing can help you develop a personalised approach to eliminate problematic foods from your diet and find suitable alternatives that support your nutritional needs.
