How can problem foods be identified?
Food elimination and reintroduction diets are
one way to identify food intolerances. We have
had a lot of experience of food intolerances at
Intelligent Nutrition and we often find that we
hit the nail on the head with surprising
accuracy first time.
Blood tests are also available which check
for raised levels of food-specific antibodies (IgG)
that indicate intolerance to those particular
foods. The technology used to identify these
antibodies is known as an ELISA test (Enzyme
Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay). This type of
biochemical test is widely used in hospitals,
universities and research facilities around the
world because it is so reliable.
Identifying food intolerances can be a
complex process. At Intelligent Nutrition we can
help you through this. If you are intolerant to
particular foods we will advise you how your
current diet needs to change and which foods you
can substitute so that you maintain an
enjoyable, varied and balance diet.
