Product Details

• Digestive discomfort: Bloating, gas, abdominal pain or changes in bowel habits that may relate to specific foods.
• Skin symptoms: Eczema, rashes or itching that fluctuate with dietary patterns.
• Headaches or low energy: Recurrent headaches, migraines or unexplained fatigue that may vary after eating.
• Sleep disturbances: Difficulty falling asleep or disrupted sleep potentially linked with food intake.
• Behavioural or focus concerns: Symptoms sometimes noted in ADD/ADHD or autism where food reactions are being explored.
• Respiratory or ENT symptoms: Chronic congestion or recurrent ear or sinus irritation that may have dietary influences.
• Joint or inflammatory discomfort: Intermittent aching or stiffness that appears to shift with certain foods.
• Irritable bowel-type symptoms: Bloating, irregular stools or abdominal discomfort where food sensitivities are suspected.
• Environmental or lifestyle contributors: Interest in how additives, antibiotics, preservatives or stress may interact with dietary reactions.

The Nordic Food Panel 96 IgG Bloodspot assesses IgG antibodies to 96 foods, including common staples and frequently consumed dietary items. It offers a focused view of delayed immune responses that may appear hours or days after eating, helping to highlight foods that could be contributing to digestive, skin, energy or behavioural symptoms.

This test may be clinically useful when exploring symptoms that fluctuate with diet, particularly when reactions are difficult to link with specific foods. By reviewing IgG reactivity across a core range of food groups, the profile helps illustrate which items may be contributing to digestive changes, headaches, skin irritation or variable energy. Patterns of immune response can be observed where several commonly eaten foods show elevated reactivity.

The 96-food format provides a practical overview suitable for initial assessment or targeted dietary exploration. When combined with symptom history and lifestyle factors, it can support structured dietary adjustments and informed clinical discussions.
