"I'd have put money on my symptoms being food-related, but none of the medics would entertain that idea until I took the Food Detective test", John Morris, West London. The test confirmed that John did indeed react to dairy, wheat and a whole host of other common ingredients and foods. Milk was the main culprit, but yeast, egg white, cola nut, wheat, pineapple and barley were also on his 'to-ban' list. John said "People who suspect an intolerance to some foods should take a test like Food Detective; carefully read ingredients lists on pre-packaged foods....and get a good cookbook"!

Food Detective Info

Easy to use food intolerance self test with immediate results.  Now includes new comprehensive Food Intolerance Support Guide as an e-book (RRP £7.99).

Food Detective identifies foods causing food specific IgG antibody production which may be involved in various conditions such as food intolerance, irritable bowel syndrome, eczema and arthritis.

The reaction tray is spotted with food protein extracts. A small blood sample is taken from a finger-prick and is then diluted and added to the tray.

In subsequent steps the use of detector and developer solutions identifies the presence of food antibodies through the appearance of one or more blue spots on the tray. Reference to the food layout plan allows the foods causing antibody production to be identified. Once identified, the trigger foods may be eliminated from your diet.
