How do food sensitivities differ from food allergies?
Food sensitivities (IgG reactions) typically cause delayed, less severe symptoms that develop slowly over time, often hours or even days after consuming a trigger food. Food allergies (IgE reactions) cause immediate and often severe, potentially life-threatening reactions. This test focuses on IgG food sensitivities.
Which test option is right for me?
The best test option depends on your dietary habits and the breadth of information you are seeking. The Enhanced panel is popular for those seeking comprehensive insights or who eat less meat, wheat, and refined sugar. The Vegetarian panel is tailored for those on a vegetarian diet, while the Basic panel covers the most common sensitivities. We recommend discussing your needs to determine the most suitable option.
