This Food intolerance test has been especially formulated for home use. There is an additional fee of just £55 to pay for analysis of the sample. You will be provided with a complete pack including full instruction and lancets to take a single sample finger prick blood sample. This is added to a special absorbent pad and you return the sample with your completed questionnaire and payment form to us in the pre-paid envelope*. Please note that the blood sample will remain viable for testing for approximately 12-14 days so please send the sample back to us as soon as possible after it is obtained. For overseas customers, please ensure you send the sample back using an expedited service so that we receive it within a maximum of 7 days of the sample being obtained. Once received, your sample is then analysed by a specialist laboratory in Switzerland that will identify those foods that react and cause an intolerance. Your results will be emailed to you approximately 5-7 working days after receipt of your blood sample. The foods causing an intolerance will be identified at three different degrees of intolerance (low or 1st degree, medium or 2nd degree, severe or 3rd degree). A typical result would be to identify the food that causes the problem and then advise what action should be taken. For example a severe or 3rd degree level of intolerance it would be recommended that you do not eat that food for three months and then to slowly re-introduce that food eating it just once in each of the next 2 weeks of the fourth month and then once a week for the fifth month and by the 6 month you should be able to eat that food item normally. The 64 foodstuffs tested cover all the main foods covering meat, dairy, fish, nuts, fruits, vegetables,tea, coffee etc. *Please note that the pre-paid envelope is only supplied to UK customers.
