Test Overview
What Is a Food Intolerance Test in Delhi?
A food intolerance test is a diagnostic tool that helps identify foods causing delayed adverse reactions in your body. Unlike food allergies that cause immediate symptoms, food intolerance reactions typically appear hours or days after consuming the trigger food.
This test measures IgG (Immunoglobulin G) antibodies that are produced by your immune system in response to specific food proteins. It helps detect which foods may be causing chronic digestive symptoms, headaches, fatigue, or other health risks.
What Does a Food Intolerance Test Measure in Delhi?
This comprehensive test evaluates your body's immune response to a wide range of foods by measuring specific markers:
• IgG antibody levels: Measures the concentration of food-specific IgG antibodies in your blood.
• Food reactivity patterns: Categorises foods based on antibody levels (elevated, borderline, or normal).
• Delayed hypersensitivity reactions: Detects non-immediate food reactions that may occur hours or days later.
• Inflammation markers: Detects delayed hypersensitivity reactions that may contribute to chronic inflammation.
• Chronic symptom triggers: Helps identify potential causes of ongoing digestive and systemic symptoms.
• Dietary guidance information: Provides recommendations for foods to avoid, rotate, or consume normally.
Who Should Consider a Food Intolerance Test?
This test is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing unexplained chronic symptoms that may be linked to their diet:
• People with persistent digestive issues: Those experiencing bloating, gas, diarrhoea, constipation, or IBS-like symptoms.
• Individuals with chronic headaches or migraines: When food triggers are suspected but not identified.
• Those with unexplained fatigue: People who feel constantly tired without a clear medical reason.
• Individuals with skin problems: Those dealing with eczema, rashes, or other skin conditions.
• People with joint pain or inflammation: When dietary factors may be contributing to discomfort.
• Anyone seeking dietary optimisation: Individuals wanting to understand their body's response to different foods.
What Is the Purpose of a Food Intolerance Test?
The food intolerance test serves a crucial role in identifying delayed food sensitivities that may be contributing to your chronic symptoms. By detecting IgG antibodies against specific foods, this test helps you and your healthcare provider create a targeted elimination diet plan. This approach can lead to significant relief from digestive discomfort, reduce chronic inflammation, and improve your overall quality of life by removing problematic foods from your daily routine.
