Food Allergies

Food Allergy Testing

The Food Allergy Test gives healthcare professionals as well as the patient a tool for managing conditions linked to inflammation and many other health problems or even learning disabilities. The tests measures an individual’s response to foods and other substances that may reveal the underlying trigger of certain symptoms you are experiencing.

Food and chemical sensitivities have been linked to migraines, aching joints, fatigue, gastrointestinal disorders, and other symptoms related to chronic activation of the immune system. The efficacy of food allergy testing has been documented in numerous studies implementing rigorous double blind and often placebo controlled study designs. Eliminating certain foods (or substances) that your body does not have a positive response to can be life altering. Foods that are good for one person can be poison for another person. Testing your compatibility to the food/substance items in these food sensitivity tests can really change a person's life as well as alter any future or current health problems.

The kits to complete a food allergy test are available at our office and have easy to follow instructions. You can decide which test you want to complete. The foods listed in each of these tests can be found on this chart.

  • Basic (88 foods) - $275
  • Vegetarian (104 foods) - $400
  • Kosher (108 foods)- $400
  • Expanded (115 foods) - $400
  • Complete (154 foods)- $455
  • Premium (207 foods)- $550

The kits are available at our office for you to pick up, take home and do at your convenience with a finger prick test and ship off when completed. Results will come back to our office in 2-3 weeks. The results show IF you have any sensitivities as well as how to incorporate changes into your diet. At that time, a half hour visit can be set up with Dr. Amy to go over the results and answer any questions you may have.

Below these 6 tests in the above chart link, there are several additional tests that can be also be done, but they do require a blood draw at a lab that Dr. Amy can set up at Mercy North right next to our office.
