Ordering the Alcat Pediatric Wellness Panel

The Alcat Pediatric Wellness Panel helps identify food and chemical triggers that may contribute to symptoms like digestive upset, skin rashes, headaches, and mood changes in children. This test uses a small blood sample to measure immune cell responses to 50 foods, 30 additives, and Candida albicans, providing specific information that can guide dietary changes and symptom management. Interestingly, the Alcat method measures changes in white blood cell size and volume, which can reveal sensitivities that standard allergy tests may miss.

Ordering this test can help you pinpoint which foods or additives may be linked to your child’s symptoms, making it easier to adjust their diet and reduce discomfort. Benefits of ordering include:

  • Identifies specific foods and additives that may trigger symptoms
  • Helps guide elimination diets for clearer symptom tracking
  • Supports management of chronic digestive or skin issues
  • May reduce the frequency of headaches, fatigue, or mood swings
  • Provides a starting point for targeted nutrition planning

Who Should Consider Food Sensitivity and Additive Testing

Children who experience ongoing digestive problems, skin irritation, or unexplained mood changes may benefit from this test. For example, a child who often has stomach pain, eczema, or trouble focusing at school could have food sensitivities that are not obvious through regular allergy testing.

Ordering may also be helpful in these situations:

  • Frequent headaches or migraines that do not improve with standard treatments
  • Recurring sinus congestion or runny nose without clear seasonal patterns
  • Unexplained joint pain or swelling in a child with no injury
  • Sudden changes in weight or appetite that are not linked to other causes
  • Children with a family history of food intolerance or autoimmune conditions

Pinpointing food and additive triggers can help reduce symptoms like bloating, diarrhea, or skin rashes, and may also improve focus and energy. Delaying this test could mean continued discomfort and missed opportunities to make simple dietary changes that may help your child feel better.

Preparing for Food and Chemical Sensitivity Testing

Fasting is not required for the Alcat Pediatric Wellness Panel, so your child can eat and drink as usual before the blood draw. Always follow any instructions your doctor or healthcare provider gives you to make sure the sample collection goes smoothly and results are as useful as possible.

Labs Included When Ordering Your Alcat Pediatric Wellness Panel

Test Name Reference Range Significance High Levels Mean
Food Sensitivity Markers
50 Foods (e.g., wheat, milk, egg, soy, peanut, fish, shellfish, corn, rice, apple, banana, carrot, tomato, potato, chicken, beef, pork, lamb, etc.) Non-reactive This group checks for immune cell reactions to common foods, helping identify which foods may be linked to symptoms like stomach pain, rashes, or headaches. Results can guide dietary changes to reduce symptoms. High levels of food reactivity suggest a possible link between those foods and symptoms such as digestive upset or skin irritation.
Food Additives, Colorings, and Preservatives
30 Additives/Colorings/Preservatives (e.g., tartrazine, sodium benzoate, MSG, aspartame, BHA, BHT, sulfites, nitrates, etc.) Non-reactive This section measures immune cell response to common food additives and preservatives, which can trigger symptoms like hyperactivity, headaches, or skin rashes in sensitive children. Results help identify which additives to avoid. High levels of additive reactivity may be linked to symptoms such as hyperactivity, headaches, or skin problems after eating processed foods.
Yeast Sensitivity
Candida albicans Non-reactive This marker checks for immune cell response to Candida albicans, a yeast that can cause digestive or skin symptoms if overgrown or if the body reacts to it. Results can help guide dietary or treatment changes. High levels of Candida reactivity may be linked to symptoms like bloating, diarrhea, or skin rashes after eating foods that promote yeast growth.

Reference ranges may change slightly as labs update their methods and standards.
