Clinical Utility

Food allergies and food sensitivities are abnormal responses to a food component triggered by the immune system in the form of immunoglobulins (IgE, IgG, IgA, IgM), representing either an immediate or delayed response.

Specific IgG, IgA ELISA food panels are arranged in comprehensivepanels of 96 foods consumed in the typical western diet or 184 foods, many of the substitute foods typically found in rotation/elimination diets.

Specific IgE food panels include the major food allergens known to be responsible for immediate type reactions and are grouped for adult, basic or comprehensive panels. Individual specific IgE foods can be ordered from the labs inventory of over 100 different foods as needed.

The Wellness Plan is a four-day rotation, food elimination plan. This customized plan is compiled by Alletess from the test results and the nutrition questionnaire.
Features:

  • Foods to eliminate are clearly identified while allowed foods are suggested on each of the four days to guide the patient in making food choices.
  • Food recommendations suggest a variety of fresh and nutritious foods.
  • Resources are included to aid the patient in either purchasing or preparing food selections.
  • Instructions on how to reintroduce foods are included.
  • Rotation of foods discourages the over indulgence of one food to compensate for the removal of another.
  • Reduces the chance of developing new food sensitivities.
