Food intolerance test
Could dizziness, sleeplessness or joint pain be connected with our food?
Our body “transmits” information about its sensitivities and even its own… preferences in food. But how can you discover whether food intolerance is present and how it can affect your overall health?
Thanks to the food intolerance test, we can help you uncover food sensitivities and discover your body’s nutritional profile. Fast, easy and painlessly.
What is food intolerance
Food intolerance is a negative reaction of our body to certain foods, or one or more ingredients in foods, such as proteins, peptides, toxins or additives that may irritate us. Several people habitually consume foods and drinks without knowing they have or may have intolerance or sensitivity to some of them. Often, intolerance is confused with allergy, which has though more direct, severe and temporary symptoms, and is easier to detect.
Over 20% of the population in developed countries suffer today from some kind of food intolerance or food sensitivity*. This amount may differ from area to area, depending on different dietary culture and access to nutritional advice and information.
*The Association of UK Dietitians, Food Fact Sheet – Food Allergies and Intolerances (https://www.bda.uk.com/foodfacts/Allergy.pdf)
“When our body is unable to complete the digestion of certain foods, it tries to defend itself and thus temporary or permanent symptoms occur, that vary from simple bloating to chronic afflictions”
- Cause
A well-known example of intolerance is lactose intolerance. Millions of people find that their body cannot produce enough of the digestive enzyme lactase, which is required to break down lactose. Total lack or low production of an enzyme allows a substance to enter our circulation, which in turn triggers the immune system. The latter treats them as antigens and generates IgG antibodies (immunoglobulin G) to protect the body from the foreign “invader”. When this process persists, the symptoms are aggravated and more systems can be affected. - Symptoms
According to the UK National Health System*, the American Gastroenterological Association** and the Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy***, the most common symptoms of food intolerance include bloating, exhaustion, stomach pain, abdominal pain, cramping, irritable bowels, diarrhoea, headache, skin irritation, weight increase, even anxiety and stress. Every individual though is different and unique, while each one’s diet and lifestyle can contribute to the symptoms’ occurrence.

“Even if we have no symptoms at all, a food intolerance test can help us build up an ample picture of our body’s nutritional preferences and sensitivities to recalibrate our diet according to its needs”
Why take the test
Testing for food intolerances or sensitivities can be useful when:
- We follow a diet that turns out inefficient in helping us lose weight, or when we gain it back later.
- We keep taking weight, despite being careful with our diet
- When we have mild, occasional symptoms, such as bloating after dinner etc.
- When we wish to discover our body’s nutritional sensitivities and “preferences” to build a custom dietary model

Why us
We believe there is no exaggeration in the known quote “we are what we eat”. More and more practitioners, health experts and researchers assert how significant a balanced diet is for good health. A simple search on the Internet is enough to find information about which nutrients every food contains, what are the properties of each food, which diets and nutritional plans exist.
However, these can be merely general answers, as every individual is unique and their body has special needs, manifesting different responses to food consumption that may depend on factors like age, habits and climate. This knowledge is not new, though. It was the Greek physician, philosopher and practitioner Hippocrates, who warned about the importance of diet and the nutritional effects on individuals, two millennia ago. As he wrote, “In nutriment purging excellent, in nutriment purging bad; bad or excellent according to circumstances.”*
In fact, he indicated that the “power of nutriment reaches to bone and to all the parts of bone, to sinew, to vein, to artery, to muscle, to membrane, to flesh, fat, blood, phlegm, marrow, brain, spinal marrow, the intestines and all their parts; it reaches also to heat, breath, and moisture.”**
Hippocrates and his students established and expanded those principles that associate human health with diet. The concept that food holds “power” over our body laid the foundation for contemporary holistic practices. Considering the numerous ways in which the food we consume is affected, from industrial processing to additives, it has become a challenge to really know how it affects each individual.
A first step towards overcoming this challenge is the food intolerance test. It is fast, safe and simple and aims at grasping the body’s appetite and uncovering potential sensitivities.

*Hippocrates, “On Nutriment”, p. XIX.
**“On Nutriment”, p. VII.
“I always believed our food is and should be an enjoyment, part of the joy of life. Nevertheless, following the contemporary developments in nutrition and the issues related to it, ranging from obesity to diabetes and depression, I increasingly observe it becomes harder and harder for people to enjoy food without complications. I experienced first-hand such complications through my loved ones, family and friends. This led us to the modern food intolerance test. The results were swift, impressive and foremost encouraging. After delving more into the philosophy and principles behind bio-screening, my faith was rekindled that there are indeed ways to enjoy food and at the same time take care of our health and body. This is the chance that I wish to offer my clients. Here, in Zante; a place that produces abundant, exceptional and fine quality goods. Is it not a blessing to redesign our nutrition and avert food intolerance, having the freedom to choose the foods that will constitute our natural remedy? There is no need to forfeit taste and enjoyment. There is no need for restrictions in our wellness”
