Intolerances to chemicals and non-food items causes identical symptoms to those of food intolerances so it is essential both are tested at the same time. Our test is currently the only test available on-line that tests both food and non-food items.
Everyone suffers intolerances but not all will lead to visible symptoms or cause major problems. This is why a one-stop test is important and you do not have to then pay extra to discover what those intolerances are.
Your intolerances can alter over time and are affected by your exposure to the item and your environment.
If you have unexplained skin, respiratory or digestive problems you should have your intolerance levels tested regularly.
