Sensitivity Testing
Why should I get a food sensitivity test? You could be eating a clean diet and you wonder why you are feeling groggy or can’t think clearly, maybe you’re eating a food that doesn’t necessarily agree with your body. This is where a sensitivity test is critical.
Food sensitivities vary from food allergies, depending on the antibody that we are testing for. An allergy is a response from IgE antibodies, whereas sensitivities are a response by the IgG antibodies.
Food sensitivity testing is quite easy, and even children can undergo this simple procedure: all it requires is a prick of the finger to draw a drop of blood. At Performance Health, we typically receive results from the lab in about a week after your visit. We will go over the results and then formulate a plan to help you stay away from the foods that do not agree with you!
Food Allergy Testing
Food allergies can be debilitating, making living life to the fullest difficult. At Performance Health, we specialize in food allergy testing and can determine if you have an allergy to a certain food. Our food allergy testing is simple and can be performed on all patients including children, with a simple prick of the finger. Once the results are in from the lab, we can go over the results with you, and formulate a plan to help you stay away from the foods that cause your allergies.
