Food Items Tested
Our food intolerance test measures 400+ items and is a comprehensive test that checks for reactions to a wide variety of foods and food components. This type of test may be helpful for people who have multiple food sensitivities or who are experiencing chronic or severe symptoms. Below we list categories we test.
Gluten items tested
Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. It is commonly found in foods that are made with these grains or have them as an ingredient. Gluten can cause health problems for people with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
Here are 20 common food items that may contain gluten:

It is always best to check the ingredient list and allergen information on food labels or to consult with a healthcare provider or a registered dietitian if you have questions or concerns about your diet.
Lactose items tested
Lactose is a sugar found in milk and other dairy products. It is broken down by the enzyme lactase in the small intestine. People with lactose intolerance have low levels of lactase, which can cause digestive problems when they consume lactose-containing foods.

It is always best to check the ingredient list and allergen information on food labels or to consult with a healthcare provider or a registered dietitian if you have questions or concerns about your diet.
Non Food Items Tested
Intolerance to non-foods can cause a range of uncomfortable and sometimes serious symptoms. These can be triggered by a variety of substances that are not typically classified as foods, including medications, chemicals, and environmental allergens.
Symptoms can vary widely and may include skin rashes, respiratory issues, digestive problems, and more. It is important to identify and avoid triggers for non-food intolerance’s to minimise the risk of serious health complications. In this section, we will explore some of the most common intolerance’s to non-foods and provide strategies for managing them.
Vitamin & Mineral Imbalance Test
Vitamin and mineral imbalances can occur when an individuals body does not have the necessary amounts of specific nutrients required for optimal functioning. These imbalances can result in a range of symptoms and health issues, from fatigue and weakness to brittle bones and anemia. Testing for vitamin and mineral imbalances can help individuals identify and address any deficiencies or excesses they may have.
Common vitamin imbalances include:
- Vitamin D deficiency
- Vitamin B12 deficiency
- Vitamin C deficiency
- Vitamin A deficiency
- Vitamin E deficiency

I have been struggling with migraines for years and could never figure out the root cause until I took a food intolerance test. The results showed that I was intolerant to gluten and eggs, and once I eliminated them from my diet, my headaches significantly reduced in frequency and intensity.

The food intolerance test was a lifesaver for me. I had been struggling with severe eczema, and the results showed that I was intolerant to gluten and dairy. Once I eliminated these foods from my diet, my skin cleared up, and my confidence soared.
