Allergy Testing
It is rare that a person has a significant allergic reaction to a food. More commonly, it is found that people have a sensitivity to certain foods that make them feel unwell.Your test at Goldings Hill Clinic will take up to 45 minutes and we suggest you come 10 minutes earlier to answer a questionnaire which includes a brief history of your symptoms and lifestyle.You will then be tested for a wide range of food sensitivity reactions and you will be given information on the availability of safe alternative foods and specific diets.You will be encouraged to eliminate the foods that have been identified and we will help you formulate a new diet to improve your overall health.
- Any side effects?
Occasionally, when you eliminate a food that you have proven to be sensitive to, you may experience an elimination phase including some mild withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms will usually last only a few days before you feel an improvement in your wellbeing.
