The Test: The latest ELISA testing technology analyses a small blood sample against 110 of the most common allergies and intolerances using IgE and IgG4 antibodies to give you accurate results within 7 working days of receipt at our facilities. This is our most comprehensive blood spot test available.
Why IgE & IgG4?: By testing both IgE and IgG4 antibodies we give you a more comprehensive picture of possible causes to symptoms. Raised IgE levels (IgE, short for “immunoglobulin E,” is the antibody that triggers food allergy symptoms) indicate allergy symptoms. Raised IgG4 (Immunoglobulin G) antibodies indicate a food intolerance or sensitivity. IgG4 responses are actually more common than the IgE, which causes an immediate reaction. Food intolerance/sensitivity reactions are more difficult to notice since they can occur hours or even days after consumption of an offending food.
Quick & easy: The easy to use testing kit is mailed immediately on purchase and should reach you within 10 working days. The kit includes full instructions on how to complete the pin-prick and blood spot sample in a fast and pain-free manner. Simply send your sample back to the address enclosed, where it is sent to our facilities for testing against the intolerance and allergen items.
Perfect for: If you are suffering from undiagnosed symptoms including bloating, rashes, migraines, stomach pain, diarrhea or vomiting these could be signs of an allergy or intolerance. Discover more about your body in this fast, easy and accurate test.

-
- Raised IgE values have proven clinically significant in identifying IgE-Mediated Allergy.
- Results do not constitute a medical diagnosis in their own right, but your doctor or nutritional therapist could use them to help form a diagnosis or rule out conditions.
- Removal of raised IgG4 items may improve lifestyle based on testimonial evidence.
- Quantitative data using an ELISA testing methodology. All values are measured in Kilounits per antigen per liter (KUA/L); our scale uses a universal cut off point of 0.35 to classify a reaction.
- Up to 97% reproducible results. Your IgG4 values may change over time with diet.
