FAQ's
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between an allergy and an intolerance?
Allergies usually cause immediate immune reactions, while intolerances are often delayed and may contribute to ongoing symptoms such as bloating, fatigue or headaches.
Is the test painful?
No, testing only requires a small finger-prick blood sample.
How long do results take?
Results are typically available within a few working days after the laboratory receives your sample.
Do I need to avoid foods before testing?
No. It is usually recommended that you continue your normal diet before testing.
