Description
The Alcat Food Sensitivity Test uncovers foods and other substances that trigger chronic inflammation and related health conditions. Symptoms such as migraines, aching joints, fatigue, gastrointestinal, respiratory, skin, neurological, and numerous other disorders, have been linked to food sensitivity and chronic inflammation.

Sensitivity vs. Allergy
Allergy: A so-called “true” or “classical” food allergy reaction usually causes immediate and dramatic symptom onset. These reactions can, in extreme circumstances, even be life-threatening. Usually, the respiratory system is most impacted.
Food sensitivity symptoms: Usually delayed and less acute. However, they can also lead to chronic inflammatory health issues, impacting almost any part of the body.
The different symptom presentation, different biological underpinnings, and overall different characteristics of true food allergy versus food sensitivity, mean that different diagnostic approaches need to be applied. The ALCAT Test is efficacious for food sensitivities, but not “true” food allergies.
