Finger-Stick Food Intolerance Home Test Kit

76-80% of chronically ill Americans, who have not responded positively
to conventional therapies, are most likely suffering from food
allergic-induced illnesses according to researchers.

There is no single cause for food intolerance. Common conditions
ascribed to food sensitivity include: ADD/ADHD, weight gain/obesity,
asthma, diabetes, chronic fatigue, Celiac Disease, headaches (including
migraine and cluster headaches), arthritis, depression, water retention,
mood swings, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and eczema to name a few.

Each person has a different metabolism, health situation and eating
habits which means a different food-intolerance profile. The most
accurate way to determine what a particular person should or shouldn't
eat is by individual testing.

York Nutritional Laboratories provides a finger-stick kit, known as the
foodSCAN IgG ELISA Food Intolerance Test, that is convenient, reliable
and inexpensive.  The foodSCAN, which detects sensitivity to any of 113
foods (including gluten), has been independently validated by both a
university-level patient study and a separate hospital-level clinical
trial.  Additionally, the foodSCAN can either be done in the comfort of
one's own home or at a doctor's office.

Using the foodSCAN kit, patients need only prick their fingertip to get
the tiny blood sample required.  The absorbent wand, which preserves the
blood specimen, is then sent to the laboratory in a postage-paid mailer.
Test results are received in less than three weeks, and include 12
months of free, unlimited telephone and Internet support.
