Food Intolerance at Home

Food intolerance is an abnormal reaction by the body to certain foods, which can present in various forms. Some individuals may occasionally experience one or two symptoms, while others may have persistent symptoms. Research indicates that around 45 percent of the population has some form of food intolerance. Unlike food allergies, food intolerances are not caused by an immune response. You can conveniently take a test from the comfort of your home at a time that suits you.

Food Intolerance vs. Food Allergy

Physical reactions to certain foods are common, but most are due to food intolerance rather than a food allergy. These two conditions are often confused because they can produce similar signs and symptoms.

A true food allergy involves the immune system, and even small amounts of the offending food can trigger a wide range of symptoms, some of which can be severe or even life-threatening. In contrast, food intolerance typically affects only the digestive system and results in less severe symptoms.

When to Test for Food Intolerance

Symptoms of food intolerance include:

Abdominal discomfort
Diarrhea
Bloating
Headaches or migraines
Heartburn
Nausea
Stomachache

Assisting with At-Home Food Intolerance Testing

IV Drip Dubai provides two at-home tests designed to detect IgG food-specific antibodies across a range of foods. This initial step helps identify potential triggers for abnormal immune responses that may be negatively impacting your health.

Food-specific IgG antibodies have been associated with immune-related food intolerances, as the immune system generates antibodies as part of its response to potential threats.
