Feeling a lot sluggish lately? Are your digestive issues causing you immense trouble? Perhaps it’s time to get tested for some food sensitivities? Food intolerances can cause a variety of unpleasant symptoms such as bloating, cramping and heartburn. I know because I have been through all of this and worse! I felt bloated like all the time – to the point where my clothes felt tight even after eating what one would deem as healthy foods. And, I always felt low on energy, which made me realize that there is something that I’m doing wrong with the types of foods I am ingesting. Plus, looking like you are 7 months pregnant when you are not, isn’t a cute look! I was dying to find a solution to my bloat which was negatively impacting my lifestyle, health and aesthetic (yes, you can call me vain).Â

I then spent weeks researching on the Internet and trying to put two and two together, when I finally came across the fact that I might be intolerant to some foods that I’m eating on a day to day basis. That is when I got my hands on the YorkTest Laboratories Food&DrinkScan Premium Test, which is a complete food intolerance test that helps you identify the main culprits behind those issues! It requires you to extract the tiniest bit of blood from your finger (similar to a sugar test) and mail it to the YorkTest Laboratories for thorough testing and analysis.
30 minute nutritional consultation
This Food&DrinkScan Premium Test has been one of the most life-changing things for me and the outcome I received was shocking, to say the least! I was flabbergasted to find out that I am intolerant to around 40 food items that are either categorized as an “avoid” or “borderline.” The results were incredibly fast and accurate. YorkTest Laboratories have been around for over 35 years and have helped so many women, men and children with their digestive health concerns. Removing food triggers have helped me relieve my digestive troubles and my guts are so happy. I found the foods that were flaring up my insides and completely eliminated them from my diet. I am at peace knowing I am healing myself from the inside out. Now, I feel lighter, happier and a lot more energetic! And, I am happy to report my annoying bloat issues have subsided quite quickly. This huge bit of knowledge makes me feel so empowered about my health and wellness. The only regret I now have is I wish I had taken the test a bit sooner.
Are you suffering from digestive issues? Do y0u wonder if your favorite foods are the culprit to your tummy problems?

I did the FODMAP diet and discovered I was sensitive to dairy so now all my digestive issues are gone. But you have to check labels carefully, dairy is hidden in a variety of things that you wouldn’t even think has dairy in them. It’s good to bring this subject to people’s attention, sometimes it helps people figure things out.

My tummy is sensitive to FODMAP foods too! You are right dairy is in everything. This is one of my triggers. Thank you so much for stopping by!
My husband needs to do this. He always has digestive issues. I might have to pick this up for him. I swear he’s partly lactose intolerant.

Hi Amber! Oh, I definitely recommends he does. The knowledge is so empowering. The test, tests over 208 food/drink. I hope he gets feeling better soon.
I definitely need this. I struggle with digestive issues and it would be nice to know what they’re from!

Hi Krysten! I hope you get a chance to take this test. I have struggle with digestive issues really bad in the last year. It kept getting worse! The test couldn’t of come sooner. Let me know how it goes for you. xo
At times I think I should also take such a test. It would make many problems related to digestive issues clear and I would probably feel much better not only at the end of the day, but all the time in general! đŸ™‚
This sounds like such an interesting test to take! I would definitely be open to trying to trying something like this myself as I do have digestive issues.
It’s nice to know that a home test like this exists. I have had periods in my life where I felt like I had some sensitivities to a few different foods and I could definitely see this being helpful during that time.
I have had food sensitivities to a variety of “healthy” foods. High iron and vitamin c foods are a no-no for me. When I avoid them, I feel so much better. Being able to have learned this without all the trials and tribulations would have been a blessing.
This looks like a good test to take, If you are struggling with reactions to food, then it could be a real life saver.
I didn’t know a home test like this existed. In the past, I have had some allergies with food. I would love to take a test like this to know better.
I am always a good health better wealth believer. This seems to be a good activity to try. I think it’s worthwhile.
It is actually good to try doing something like this. Well, it’s always nice to try something new. Looks like a pretty effective one.

They have been in operation for over 35 years! It is definitely an effective and credible test. Please, let me know if you have any questions.
This sounds like it would be really useful for people with digestive issues to get to the bottom of what’s causing them. I’m going to pass this along to some friends that might be interested!

This looks like a great test to take. I will recommend to one of my friend. Hope this is going to help him a lot

I always wondered how well these tests work – I’m glad to see that you managed to find out about your intolerances!

Hi! The test just needed a little bit of blood and everything was sent in the mail. It was that easy. The results of the test has helped me so much! No more BLOAT and pain thank goodness!
Ooooo I had no idea such a test existed!!!! I don’t think I have any food allergies, but I would be intrigued to try one of these to see lol
Author
Hi Courtney! This test is so cool, right!?! I am glad you stopped by my blog to learn about it.
P.S. I do highly recommend you try it though. My results totally surprised me.
I didn’t even realize that dogs could have food allergies too! I think this is a great investment.
Author
Hi Catherine, just to make sure you understand, this test is for humans…not for dogs. My dog Reece wanted to jump in on the photo shoot. Dogs are just so much fun! Thanks for stopping by. Please, let me know if you have any questions about this food/drink sensitivity test. Have a great day!
no idea this existed. i’ll have to ask my doctor about t

Hi Jasmine! That is a great idea. This test identifies food sensitivities, so if you are suffering from any digestive issues (bloat, gas, diarrhea, and constipation) this is what the test will pin point – those certain food triggers.
This is great! So many people live their lives with issues and have no idea! I found out I was Gluten intolerant and it was a life changer for me! Fewer migraines, more energy… was just amazing! I would love to use this and see if there are other intolerances I have that would help improve the quality of my life.
Author
Hi Wren! I am so glad you found out that you are gluten intolerant. This knowledge makes all the difference. I do hope you get a chance to try this test. It tests a myriad of different foods and drinks. It was so helpful for me. Thanks for stopping by!
Never heard of this before! I’m interested! I don’t know if I have digestive issues but I do feel the same way as you. All I know is that I’m feeling like that because of my hormone imbalance. I’ll check this out!

Hi Joyce! I definitely hope you get a chance to try this test. It has helped me so much!
THis is very interesting! My daughter feels this way and I think it has to do with her hormones.
