Do you suffer from IBS symptoms such as bloating, diarrhoea,Chronic fatigue, headaches or migraines , skin problems, joint pains, aching muscles and weakness to name a few……

Food intolerance may be the trigger.
It has long been known that the consumption of certain foods can have profound effects on the physical and mental health of susceptible individuals. This is even more evident in today’s world with the huge variety of processed foods we now consume.

What is a food intolerance reaction?

Not to be confused with food allery (which involves the immune system ), a food intolerance reaction occurs when an individual’s threshold to certain food compounds or chemicals is exceeded. Symptoms can occur hours – even days – after eating the offending food. Therefore it can be very difficult to pin point which foods could be causing the symptoms. Food intolerance is associated with a wide range of unpleasant symptoms and many chronic conditions.

Less than 2% of the population suffers from food allergies; however around 45% of the population is estimated to suffer from some form of food intolerance.

A range of testing is available from an inhouse test covering 59 foods to a complete lab service which offers a more comprehensive service.
In house testing will return results on the same day. Samples sent to lab for testing will take around 10 days.

A simple finger pin prick is performed for all of the intolerance tests.
