Advanced IgG Food Sensitivity Screening | Comprehensive Chronic Inflammation Assessment
Why Choose This Test?
Who Is This For?
A non-invasive and safe test detecting 12 specific species of gut microbiota using at-home sample collection. Understand and intake which probiotics might be lacking.
Discover your true allergy triggers with ApexHealth IgE ALEX3. Testing 300 molecular allergens with just 2ml of blood. CE-IVD certified. Safe for infants and children!
Thought the blood test to find out the root cause of the food sensitivity problem for prevention is preferable, identifying problematic foods, followed by a “controlled diet” could work for individuals who may be suffering from conditions as a result of their immune system acting up, then the success rate is usually much higher.
The food categories include: Dairy, seafood, fruit, cereals (gluten-free & gluten-containing), herbs, meat, nuts, vegetables and miscellaneous.
Up to 220 food allergens
In normal circumstances, the GI tract breaks down the food and absorbs through health gut barrier.
However, if the gut barrier is damaged, food substances could leak out through the damaged gut wall to the blood stream, and lead to inflammatory responses and the delayed onset immune response of Immunoglobulin G (IgG).
According to clinical studies, individuals with Crohn’s disease have higher serum IgG antibody than healthy individuals, especially who consumed high amount of processed milk products and yeast foods. Studies have also shown that individuals have significantly reduced abdominal pain, abnormal bowel movements and diarrhea with elimination diet.
Understand and eliminate high IgG responses foods to reduce the symptoms of chronic GI diseases and help you eat healthy!
Studies have pointed out that delayed food allergy (IgG) can cause inflammation in the body, lead to obesity or many chronic diseases. When you are in inflammatory response, your body will produce messenger-like protein like TNF-alpha. This type of protein could block the insulin receptors, which lead to the conversion of sugars into fats and slow down the metabolism, which in turn can lead to obesity.
Another study pointed out that after subjects received an IgG food intolerance test and quit related allergenic foods, most individuals had a significant reduce in body weight, body mass index, waist and hip circumference, and resting diastolic blood pressure, also with the quality of life.
Inflammation: When food is incorrectly identified as a threat will trigger the production IgG antibodies with food proteins to form an immune complex. These complexes can potentially contribute to inflammatory and lead to certain symptoms and discomfort such as skin issues and eczema, stomach pain, indigestion, gastrointestinal distress, headaches and other chronic condition.
Discover food sensitivities: Identifying your personal trigger foods is the first step in protecting your body from IgG Food Sensitivity.
IgG Food Sensitivity Screening Test can identify and avoid different types of food that you may have a negative reaction to, highlighting the foods that you have high IgG reactivity to so that you can consider eliminating from your diet temporarily. As unwanted triggers are removed, it builds a stronger body barrier and reduce the risk of develop chronic health issue.
Ideally, we want a diet that is as diverse and nutrient-rich as possible. After remove any potential trigger to harmful for your gut, then by consuming a nutritious diet, such as eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and supplementing with appropriate vitamins like bioflavonoids and phytonutrients may help protect against inflammation. Some healthy fats that help boost brain and heart health, such as monounsaturated fats and abundant omega-3 fatty acids, may help reduce inflammation.
Gut microbiota imbalances can contribute to inflammation and lead to poor digestive health and chronic health symptoms.
Restoring the microbial balance in the intestines by introducing probiotics such as lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, would beneficially gut health, improve digestion, enhance nutrient absorption and reduce gut inflammatory situation.
Gut Microbiome PCR Test Help You Replenish “Right” probiotics for Your Gut
Gut Microbiome PCR testing with tailor made probiotics can provide specific details on your digestion system. Replenish which probiotics you might be missing based on your own result to achieve a healthier gut condition, reducing excessive inflammation in the gut and ultimately help improve eczema.
Repeating IgG Food Sensitivity Screening Test and Gut PCR testing can play a role in gut restoration and provide several benefits for overall gut health.
Repeating the tests allows you to constantly assess whether the dietary changed have successfully reduced inflammation, improved gut health, and resolved food sensitivities.
There may be underlying factors or additional triggers that were not initially identified for some testers. Repeating the tests can help uncover any remaining / new food sensitivities in the gut. Repeated Gut Microbiome PCR testing can provide insights into the changes in probiotics species and quantities within the gut ecosystem. Identifying these issues allows for further help for interventions and adjustments to the dietary plan.
Repeated testing provides an opportunity to fine-tune your dietary plan to optimize gut restoration and achieve the desired gut health benefits.
ApexHealth IgG Food Sensitivity Test uses microarray-based ELISA technology, one of the fastest methods for measuring food-related IgG antibodies. Combined with advanced computer software, the results are calibrated against scientific guidelines to provide a quantitative analysis of the IgG antibody level for each food.
Foods are grouped by category and ranked according to antibody reactivity.
A numerical value is displayed in a coloured box adjacent to each food, which represents the concentration of IgG antibodies detected for each food. Foods are categorized as NORMAL, BORDERLINE or ELEVATED, depending on the antibody level detected.
Dietitian will integrate and analyse your test results for delayed food allergies to find out which daily foods need to be avoided or eatable. Providing advice on how to change your daily diet to minimize allergic reaction and greatly reduce your allergy symptoms.
IgE Immediate Allergy Test detects specific immunoglobulin E (sIgE) in your blood against certain allergens such as pollen, dust mites, and some foods. It helps identify the causes of common immediate allergy symptoms, including sneezing, runny nose, itching, and skin rashes.
IgG Food Sensitivity Test provides a more in-depth analysis of delayed food allergy reactions, helping to identify possible causes of inflammation and chronic conditions, such as allergic eczema, long-term skin problems, migraines, and fatigue.
You can order directly from the E-shop or contact us at (852) 3504 2738 to make an appointment with our professional team, and visit our medical center to collect blood samples.
Complete the food allergen analysis within 7 working days.
No fasting is required, just keep your original eating habits.
Customers must present their identity cards and on the appointment day. Test results may be affected if individuals have already used particular steroid / Immunosuppressant, or might be affected if individuals have been avoiding particular foods. The service purchased is valid for two months (from the date of purchase) or it will be forfeited. For any enquiry, please call our customer services hotline at (852) 3979 3200.
Yes, but we recommend child age of 2 years old or above to do the test.
No. Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest lactose, the major sugar found in milk, and is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme lactase. ApexHealth IgG Food Sensitivity Screening Test detects IgG-mediated food sensitivity caused by the specific proteins found in milk, but does not detect the lactase enzyme and, therefore, cannot diagnose lactose intolerance.
Yes, so you should be careful when introducing a new dietary regime. We can arrange follow-up dietary advice from qualified professionals to anyone who has taken the allergy test.
