Who should take the test?

Our immune system reacts to foods that are actually harmless, as if they were dangerous and it fights them.  With our Food IgE Test, we examine foods that can trigger various symptoms.

The Food IgE Test measures your immune system’s IgE reactivity to the folliwing foods:

• Alpha Lactalbumin, Beta Lactalbumin
• Casein, Cheddar Cheese, Cow’s Milk, Goat Cheese
• Beef, Chicken, Chicken Egg White, Chicken Egg Yolk, Ovalbumin, Ovomucoid, Pork
• Blue Mussel, Cod, Pacific Sardine, Salmon, Shrimp, Tuna
• Apple, Banana, Lemon, Orange, Pineapple, Strawberry
• Carrot, Tomato, White Potato
• Almond, Hazelnut, Oat, Walnut,Peanut
• Rice, Soybean, Corn
• Wheat, Rye, Baker’s Yeast, Brewer’s Yeast, Gluten, Barley
• Chocolate
• Also included: Cross-Reactive Carbohydrate Determinant

With our 44 Food IgE Test, you can find out which foods your body is reacting to. You can then start a diet rotation plan, through which you can optimize your diet individually and thus counteract inflammatory processes in the intestine.

The test is a quantitative ELISA analysis of specific IgE antibodies to 44 common foods.

How does it work?

You take a dry blood spot sample at home, send it back to us and we will send you your result with information on how strongly your body reacts to the respective food.

What guidance will I get along with my results?

Your findings contain detailed information about your body’s reaction to the above foods and whether this reaction is minimal, weak, mild to moderate, or strong. You can then discuss these results with your doctor or alternative practitioner, who can advise you on how to proceed and on the various therapy options.

Although we do not offer medical advice ourselves, we will gladly assist you in finding a suitable therapist in your area. Besides, further information is available on our website, especially in the different test categories, under “health conditions” and the FAQs. Still have questions?
