Discover Food Sensitivities with ALCAT Testing in Charlotte
The ALCAT test is a blood test that looks at how your white blood cells react when they’re exposed to different foods and substances. When your immune cells are presented a challenge (food, chemical, dye, etc), their response can predict if your body has a sensitivity to it. The test then provides a report showing which foods generate an inflammatory response and which ones do not, and you can use that data to guide your dietary decision-making. Having this data allows you to begin making the necessary changes to your lifestyle to help mitigate conditions such as asthma, migraines, fatigue, hyperactivity, obesity and more*.
ALCAT Testing
The ALCAT Sensitivity/Intolerance Tests are available in a number of panels that test for specific types of foods. There is a long list of panels available and Dr. Jones will work with you to determine which test will be most appropriate for your individual symptomatology and diet. These tests can monitor for intolerances or sensitivities to food dyes, herbs and other various foods. In addition to foods, these tests can also look at environmental factors, chemicals, medications and more. This will allow medical professionals to make more appropriate treatment recommendations, often without the need for adding medications that can result in negative side effects.
