Jean offers Lorisian Food Intolerance Tests for those people who are suffering from on going symptoms which they feel could be a reaction to something they are eating. Lorisian Food Intolerance Tests analyse your blood sample for food specific IgG antibody reactions. This means that an individual can quickly and simply find out what they may be reacting to, which will enable them to eliminate those specific foods from their diet. Even though food intolerance symptoms may not be life threatening they can make an individual feel unwell and consequently can have an impact on their quality of life.
Common symptoms that can be caused by food intolerance.
Digestive System: Abdominal pain, stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, IBS, fluid retention, nausea
Respiratory System: Sinusitis, rhinitis, wheezing
Skin: Itching, eczema, psoriasis rashes, urticaria, acne
Nervous System: Headaches, migraine, hyperactivity, low mood, anxiety
Muscular/Skeletal: Aches and joint pain, fibromyalgia
Others: Weight gain/loss, general tiredness, fatigue, chronic fatigue
If I choose to have a test what do I do?
Book a consultation appointment. A questionnaire about your symptoms will be sent to you for you to fill in and bring with you to your appointment. At the appointment, the symptoms will be discussed, medical history will be taken and a test kit will be given to you to administer yourself as it is a simple prick test. All you need to do is to follow the instructions on the test kit and send it off. The results are sent back within approximately ten days. Another appointment will then be made to discuss the results and way forward. Nutritional support will be given to help with safe elimination of foods and suggestions for alternative foods to ensure a balanced diet. If needed, further appointments can be made to support the process.
The test plus two consultations cost £240
