Reason for measuring IgG antibodies
Food-specific IgG antibodies are useful in determining whether a food allergy/Sensitivity is present, and if so, the antigen causing the sensitivity. Since sensitivity to foods is an abnormal response to a food component triggered by the immune system in the form of immunoglobulins, the IgG Alletess Food Sensitivity Test represents a delayed type allergic/ hypersensitivity reaction.
Food Allergy and Sensitivity Causes and Symptoms
Food hypersensitivity may be caused by many factors such as: stress, infection, overeating, artificial preservatives, additives, fungicides, molds, pesticides, antibiotics, and environmental pollutants. Among the many organs involved, the skin, gut, and respiratory tract are most affected by food hypersensitivity reactions.
Patient Questionnaire
Please note that the interpretation of immunoglobulin testing to food allergens should always be done in the context of the patient’s symptoms and medical history. Therefore, a patient questionnaire is included with the test kit.
Customized Program
We provide a four-day rotation, elimination diet called the Wellness Rotary Program. Therefore a customized program is compiled directly from your test results and your nutrition questionnaire.
- Foods to eliminate are clearly identified while allowed foods are suggested on each of the four days to guide the patient in making food choices.
- Also, food recommendations suggest a variety of fresh and nutritious foods.
- Resources are included to aid the patient in either purchasing or preparing food selections.
- Also included are instructions on how to reintroduce foods.
- Individualized rotation of foods discourages the over indulgence of one food over other choices.
- This in turn reduces the chance of developing new food sensitivities.
- A wallet size card that lists the foods the patient needs to avoid is provided making it easy to food shop.
