Collection Method: Blood serum(at home or lab)

Tests 166 foods to assess if there is an inflammatory reaction. 

Food sensitivities cause systemic inflammation that may manifest as digestive issues, anxiety, headaches, joint pain, and more.

​

Discover your unique food sensitivities with the ELISA/ACT LRA test. This advanced test  provides a comprehensive view of immune reactions by measuring:

​

• IgG (Immunoglobulin G): Involved in delayed food reactions, but can also indicate tolerance or recent exposure. Not accurate on it's own.

• IgM (Immunoglobulin M): Involved in early -stage immune response

• IgA (Immunoglobulin A): Involved in food sensitivities related to GI mucosal immunity.

• Immune Complexes: Circulating immune complexes formed by antigens and antibodies

• IgE (Immunoglobulin E: Associated with immediate allergic reactions)

• T-cell mediated responses:  Assesses delayed reactions that are not antibody-driven but rather involve the cellular immune response (T-cells).

This multi approach makes it highly accurate for identifying a broader range of sensitivities and immune reactions, capturing those that might be missed by tests that only measure a single type of antibody. By pinpointing specific sensitivities, the test helps you tailor your diet and lifestyle for improved health and vitality. 

 

This test is best combined with the comprehensive stool test, as food sensitivities cause intestinal inflammation and occur due to a gut health issue (i.e increased intestinal permeability or "leaky gut") which needs to be addressed in order to reintroduce reactive foods.
