Food Sensitivity Testing Jupiter

The Difference

FOOD SENSITIVITIES VS. FOOD ALLERGIES

Food sensitivity and micronutrient testing can be essential tools in helping you achieve optimal health. These tests can identify which specific foods may be causing unwanted side effects and determine which micronutrients you may be lacking. TruWellnessMD believes in personalized care tailored to each individual. We strive to deliver the best micronutrient and food sensitivity testing Jupiter has to offer. Through micronutrient testing in our in-house laboratory, we identify dietary deficiencies and provide you with a roadmap to better health.

Food sensitivities and food allergies are two different types of reactions to food, although they share some commonalities. Food sensitivities are generally less serious than food allergies and do not include the potentially life-threatening anaphylaxis reaction that can occur with food allergies. Food sensitivity is an adverse reaction to certain foods, but the body does not produce an allergic antibody in response.

Food allergies are much more serious as the body’s immune system produces an allergic antibody in response to the food. Your body essentially mistakes the food for potentially harmful pathogens that must be eliminated, leading to dangerous symptoms and complications. Symptoms can range from mild, such as itchy skin, to life-threatening, such as anaphylaxis. As such, you must avoid foods you’re allergic to.

Importance of Micronutrient Testing

THE IMPACT OF MICRONUTRIENT DEFICIENCIES

Micronutrient deficiencies can majorly impact overall health, especially for those with limited access to a balanced diet. Deficiencies in essential vitamins and minerals, such as iron, vitamin A, zinc, and iodine, can lead to various health issues, such as weakened immune systems, stunted growth, and anemia. Chronic micronutrient deficiency can also have serious long-term effects, such as weakened immune systems, stunted growth, goiters, and other medical concerns. Micronutrient testing can help us optimize your health.

Unlocking Health Insights
