Ordering the 190 IgG Food Allergy Test with Candida & Yeast | Dried Blood Spot | Canada
This test helps identify delayed food reactions and sensitivities to 190 foods, plus Candida and yeast, using a simple dried blood spot sample. It is especially useful for those experiencing ongoing digestive discomfort, skin rashes, headaches, or joint pain that have not improved with basic dietary changes. Interestingly, research shows that IgG-mediated food sensitivities can contribute to symptoms that appear days after eating certain foods, making them difficult to pinpoint without testing.
Ordering this test provides:
- Detection of delayed immune responses to a wide range of foods, including dairy, gluten, eggs, nuts, and soy.
- Assessment of reactions to Candida and yeast, which are often overlooked in standard food panels.
- Guidance for targeted dietary changes to help reduce symptoms like bloating, fatigue, and skin issues.
- Convenient at-home sample collection with no need for a blood draw at a clinic.
- Comprehensive results that can be shared with your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations.
Who Should Consider Food Sensitivity and Yeast Testing
People who have tried eliminating common trigger foods but still experience symptoms such as bloating, headaches, or skin irritation may benefit from this test. For example, someone who has switched to a gluten-free diet but continues to have joint pain and fatigue could use this test to uncover hidden food sensitivities or yeast overgrowth.
Ordering may also be helpful in these situations:
- Persistent sinus congestion or post-nasal drip that does not respond to allergy medications
- Recurring eczema or unexplained skin rashes
- Unpredictable mood swings or low mood after eating certain foods
- Digestive issues like gas, bloating, or irregular bowel movements despite dietary changes
- Frequent headaches that seem to follow meals, even when avoiding known allergens
Testing for delayed food and yeast reactions can help pinpoint specific triggers, allowing for more precise dietary adjustments and symptom relief. Delaying this test may result in ongoing symptoms and missed opportunities to address underlying food or yeast sensitivities.
Preparing for Food Allergy and Yeast Antibody Testing
Fasting is not required for this dried blood spot test, so you can collect your sample at any time of day. Always follow any instructions provided by your doctor or healthcare practitioner to ensure your sample is collected and shipped correctly.
