Information
Common symptoms of an allergic reaction include:
Sneezing, runny or blocked nose (allergic rhinitis)
Itchy, red, watering eyes (conjunctivitis)
Wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and coughing
Raised, itchy, red rash (hives)
Swollen lips, tongue, eyes, or face
Tummy pain, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea
Dry, red, cracked skin
These symptoms can vary in severity and may be influenced by factors such as diet, environmental triggers, and seasonal changes. If you experience any of these regularly, an allergy or intolerance test may help identify the cause.
Additional Information
Traditional allergy testing methods, like elimination diets and skin prick tests, can be time-consuming and ineffective for those with multiple allergies. Our home allergy test offers an efficient, accurate, and cost-effective alternative. It allows you to test for both food intolerances and allergies, helping to distinguish between the two.
Food intolerance is when the body struggles to digest certain substances, like lactose in milk. Unlike food allergies, which can trigger immediate and severe reactions, food intolerance symptoms are usually milder and may last up to 72 hours. Common symptoms include bloating, vomiting, or itching.
Our home test is easy to use, requiring a simple finger prick to collect a blood sample, which is then sent to our laboratory for analysis. This non-invasive method ensures accurate results and eliminates the hassle of traditional testing. Our lab experts use advanced technology to provide precise testing, helping you understand how your body reacts to different foods.
For accurate results, we recommend avoiding antihistamines for 5 days before the test, as they may affect the outcome. If you suspect an allergy, it’s important to consult with an allergist to confirm the cause and severity of your symptoms and receive proper guidance for managing them.
Why Take and Allergy Test?
Not all allergies are severe, and many people experience mild allergic reactions without realizing it. These symptoms are often ignored or mistaken for feeling run down. By using a simple home test, you can identify your allergies and intolerances. Once identified, eliminating these triggers from your daily routine can significantly improve your well-being and boost your energy levels.
