Wondering why you are feeling bloated, constipated, having loose stools, feeling sick, tired, irritable, brain fog, catching every cold, dealing with skin issues and more? Well it could be related to IgG food intolerances. Listen in to this episode to learn more about food intolerances, how to test for them and what natural treatments are available.

Food IgG Intolerance Testing Options:

  • Food Detective Test - tests for 59 different foods that are common causes of food intolerances such as: wheat, gluten, yeast, other grains, dairy, soy, egg, fish, shellfish and many more. Results come back in 45 mins and this is such an easy pin prick blood test you can even do it yourself at home!

  • Food Intolerance Testing through a Laboratory - this requires a referral form from your naturopath, you go to a blood collection center for a venous blood draw and then thats sent away with results coming back in a few days to a week. You can choose with your naturopath different 'food or chemical panels' that you may want to test for if you want to dig deeper then just the most common foods that trigger intolerances. This one is useful for testing kids for additives, colourings and chemicals that could be affecting behavior etc.
