Your Intolerance Screen will give you a better understanding of your body and the food sensitivities that may be preventing you from reaching optimum health and achieving your goals. By taking your test you will gain the knowledge needed to make the changes necessary to get the results you want.
The Intolerance Screen
Using the latest ELISA testing technology, this home to lab testing kit analyses a small blood sample against 63 of the most common food intolerances that an individual will find in their daily diet. The test analyses the blood samples against raised IgG4 antibodies to give you accurate results within 7 working days upon receipt at our laboratory.
Why IgG4?
Raised IgG4 (Immunoglobulin G) antibodies indicates a food intolerance or sensitivity. IgG4 responses are 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. This means you’re less likely to accurately self-diagnose this particular response without taking an Intolerance Screen test.
Simple & Easy
The easy to use testing kit is mailed immediately on purchase and should reach you within 1-3 working days. In the box, there will be full instructions provided on how to complete the pin-prick and blood spot sample in a fast and pain-free manner. Then, simply send your sample back to the address provided, where it is passed to our labs for testing against the intolerance and allergen items. We have a customer support team on hand 24/7 to answer your queries or offer advice on obtaining your sample.
Perfect
If you are suffering from undiagnosed symptoms including a bloated stomach, rashes, migraines, stomach pain, diarrhoea or vomiting. These could be signs of a food intolerance which could be identified by Intolerance Screen.

Your results
The results are generated into an email report (PDF), and this includes a comprehensive explanation of the items tested for, as well as whether you have allergies to those items. No further payment for your results is required.
- Removal of raised IgG4 items may improve lifestyle based on testimonial evidence.
- Results do not constitute a medical diagnosis on their own, but may be used by your doctor or nutritional therapist to help form a diagnosis or rule out a condition.
- Quantitative data using an ELISA testing methodology. All values measured in Kilounits per antigen per litre (KUA/L), our scale uses a universal cut off point of 0.35 in classifying a reaction.
- >97% reproducible results. IgG4 values may change over time with diet.
