It's important to recognize the difference. We test for the DELAYED sensitivity response…not the immediate response. We're testing the 10-12 hour...sometimes up to 72 hour immune response that patients cannot figure out on their own!...
If you think you may be sensitive to certain foods, the best thing to do is to simply test. It's a simple finger prick done in under 3 minutes. Remember, we're testing the delayed immune response / reaction and this makes any sort of elimination diet next to impossible. Call our clinic today to set up a consultation with Dr. McCarthy and to see if food sensitivity testing may be right for you.
