MRT (mediator release) Food Sensitivity Test

This test gives insight into inflammation provoking foods and food-chemicals

• tests 170 foods and food chemicals

Chronic health complaints such as digestive problems, headaches, joint and muscle pain, weight imbalance and fatigue are all symptoms which can be caused by our immune system's reaction to foods, additives, or other substances in our diet. Any food or food additive can be reactive, even foods which are considered healthy, such as chicken, broccoli, or garlic. In addition, reactions can be delayed and/or dose-dependent. This means we may not feel the effects of a reaction until many hours or days after we've eaten the reactive foods, or unless we eat enough of the reactive food. This test identifies how strongly your immune cells react to the foods and food chemicals by measuring intracellular mediator release indirectly.  When released from immune cells, chemical mediators such as histamine, cytokines, and prostaglandins produce damaging effects on body tissues, leading to the development of symptoms. Identifying harmful substances is the first step towards improving your health.
