Food Intolerance Tests (IgG/E)

Submitted by 00800933 on May 11, 2009 - 2:06am.

As we all know food intolerance is different from true food allergies and is very difficult to diagnose.
The commercial test that were initiated in UK for diagnosing food intolerance are now being marketed in developing countries where even professionals do not have much information about usefulness of the tests and are impressed by research reports presented by the test developers.
I am looking for any position statement of nutrition/dietetic professionals of UK regarding these tests and also in knowing point of view of dietitians and nutritionists in UK about usefulness of these tests.
