Concerend about a food intolerance or sensitivity?
As an integral part of our approach to providing support for your long-term health and wellbeing, we provide convenient IgG Food Sensitivity Testing. This test is provided inside the clinic with no need for a referral to a specialist centre. The IgG Food Detective test lets you see what foods you currently react to and our qualified nutritionist provides your results and simple recommendations.
How it Works
Your IgG Food Detective test detects antibodies in the blood, that have formed in response to food. The test involves taking a small pin prick of blood that is then analysed against a wide range of foods. Appontments take around 15 minutes at our clinic in Worthing. Results are sent to you within 48 hours.
