Let's talk about how these tests purport to work, so you can understand why tamaraduker wishes her patients never went down this path in the first place.
practice, I know that plenty of my patients find that certain foods don’t agree with them. It’s my job to help them figure out which ones. You’d think, then, that I would embrace the emergence of food sensitivity testing kits that identify food intolerances as a tool in my quest to help patients feel better. But the opposite is true.
But the worst case scenario is, in my opinion, that patients are unable to let go of the notion that this laundry list of foods indicated by the sensitivity test kit is somehow problematic for them. They assume they still feel lousy not because they aren’t actually intolerant of the foods they eliminated, but rather because they haven’t yet eliminated enough foods.
If you suspect you’re adversely reacting to certain foods, an allergist may measure blood levels of IgE antibodies to determine whether food allergy is likely. If you suspect you have the autoimmune disorder, there’s a blood screening recommended to start the diagnosis process. But without any evidence of an immune system response to foods, it’s likely that you’re looking at a food intolerance instead.
