Food Sensitivity Tests

Food Sensitivity Testing $289-399

Food sensitivities cause a variety of symptoms including nausea, bloating, GERD (reflux or heartburn), headaches, migraines, skin rashes, eczema, cracked heels, and behaviour disorders, and are associated with autoimmune conditions including vitiligo, Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis, MS, etc.

Food sensitivities differ from allergies in that they create a delayed hypersensitivity. Unlike allergies that can cause swelling and closing of airways or anaphylaxis, sensitivities cause symptoms over several days, making it difficult to detect which foods are causing the reaction. Rather than using the test for diagnosis, Naturopathie uses it to guide treatment through the removal and reintroduction of food sensitivities.

The three options include:

  • FST Basic 125+ foods

  • FST Enhanced 220+ foods

  • Vegetarian FST 160+ foods
