The Science Behind Allergy and Intolerance Testing
Using ELISA testing for raised IgE antibodies to detect 38 allergies and 40 IgG4 antibodies to detect food intolerances, this test offers accurate lab results to enable you to optimize your diet and lifestyle. By testing both IgE and IgG4 antibodies, we give you a more comprehensive understanding of possible causes of symptoms, aiding more effective elimination or further investigation.
How to Test for Allergies
Raised IgE (immunoglobulin E) antibodies are a recognized indicator of an allergy reaction. IgE allergy reactions are usually less common than intolerances (IgG) and present as a more immediate reaction.
How to Test for a Food Intolerance
Raised IgG4 (Immunoglobulin G) antibodies indicate you have a food intolerance. IgG4 responses are more common than IgE (allergy), which causes an immediate reaction.
