Testing Methods for Food Intolerance

Types of Testing For Food Intolerance

Have you had clinical tests for food intolerance, followed all the instructions - but still suffer with symptoms? Unfortunately this happens a lot . . . but we must not blame doctors. It is the clinical tests themselves which can be unreliable.
However - there is one tried and proven system - the Journal Method.

Clinical Tests from your Doctor

Your medical doctor (GP) may use:

    • Several kinds of blood tests
    • Hydrogen breath testing
    • Allergy testing (e.g. by skin pinprick method)
    • Gastroscopy (tube guided into stomach while under anaesthetic)
    • Intestinal biopsy (small tissue sample taken under anaesthetic)
    • Stool (faecal) analysis
    • Skin sample analysis (e.g. with flaking skin infections)
    • Genital swab (e.g. for fungal conditions)

 

Tests from a Naturopath

A naturopath or alternative medicine practitioner may use:     

    • Iridology (diagnosis by looking into the iris of the eyes) also called homeopathy
    • Examination of eyes, skin, tongue and pulses
    • Vega testing (small electrical currents sent through person and food)
    • Other methods

 

But can you trust Clinical Testing?

Bear in mind that most clinical testing relies on your doctor's interpretation of the results - and that many tests return 'inconclusive' results.

After your tests you may be required to undergo a further series of tests to gather more information. The doctor may then use all these to try and build up a picture of what could be causing your symptoms or illness. But unfortunately, hard conclusive results are not often found.

However the Elimination Diet Method (Journal Method) always gets results first time - because it relies on your symptoms to tell the story.
