Simple, safe, accurate and fast, Food Detective™ is the world’s first in-clinic test for food intolerance!!

Food Specific IgG testing is now available at Advanced Vitality.

Have you ever thought that you may be reacting to some of the foods you eat?

Food Intolerance is your body’s abnormal reaction to certain foods which can manifest itself in a number of ways. Some people will have one symptom such as a severe headache whilst others will be unfortunate to experience irritable bowel syndrome, migraine and skin or respiratory conditions. Realising that your food is a catalyst for particular symptoms is not easy when, unlike the immediate reactive symptoms of food allergy, food intolerance symptoms often appear hours or even days later. In fact many food intolerance sufferers have commented post diagnosis and after having removed their problem foods that they realise they had been experiencing minor symptoms as a result of intolerance for their entire lives.

What happens after the test?

Studies have shown that by eliminating foods identified through IgG testing 75.8% of people had a noticeable improvement in their condition.

What else can I do?

Am important function of the gut is to form a protective barrier. This protective function relies on gut permeability being kept within strict limits. When this balance is affected hyperpermeability or “leaky gut” can result.
Food Intolerance testing is now available for your convenience.
