A blood test measuring IgG antibody responses to over 200 foods and drinks, for anyone with ongoing digestive symptoms who wants to identify possible trigger foods.
60 biomarkers as listed by Randox Health, of 207 in total.
This test measures IgG antibody levels against over 200 foods and drinks, an approach the provider frames as a way to help identify foods that might be linked to symptoms like bloating, digestive discomfort or headaches. IgG food testing is a marker some providers use this way, though it does not diagnose a food allergy or intolerance on its own.
With 207 biomarkers, it sits close to the median food count for the 12 tests in its intolerance comparison group. Its price of £209 is around 50% above that group's £139 median, and well above Check My Body Health's tests, which test far more foods for as little as £26.99, so it scores poorly on value for money despite testing a similar number of foods to most peers.
It scores lower on results and follow-up, since results are not doctor-reviewed as standard, and on collection convenience, given the venous draw and roughly 10-day wait, the longest turnaround among the tests we have covered for this provider. Clarity and documentation score well, with the biomarker list and turnaround clearly set out.
This suits people with ongoing digestive symptoms who want a broad IgG food panel and are comfortable with a 10-day wait for results. Several alternatives test as many or more foods for considerably less, including Check My Body Health's Body Intolerance Test at £34.99 for 1,500 foods, so it is worth comparing panels if price matters more than the provider. Persistent digestive symptoms are worth discussing with your GP, since IgG testing does not replace a medical diagnosis.
A blood sample is taken by venous draw at a Randox clinic. The lab measures IgG antibody levels against over 200 foods and drinks, with results available within 10 working days of the sample reaching the lab. The provider does not state that a doctor reviews the results as standard.
This £209 test measures IgG responses to 207 foods, close to the 218-food median for its 12-test intolerance comparison group, but at a price around 50% above that group's £139 median. Cheaper alternatives testing more foods exist, such as Check My Body Health's tests from £26.99.

Most markers in its group, priced well below the median
A hair-sample test screening reactivity to 1,500 food and non-food items, intended to give informational insights into possible dietary and lifestyle triggers rather than a clinical diagnosis.
990-item hair panel priced 76% below the group median
A hair-sample test screening reactivity to 990 food and non-food items, intended as an informational guide to possible dietary and lifestyle triggers rather than a clinical diagnosis.
Cheapest intolerance panel in the comparison group
A hair-sample test screening reactivity to 650 food and non-food items at the lowest price in its comparison group, intended as an informational guide rather than a diagnosis.
Broad 260-food IgG panel near the £139 median
A blood test measuring IgG antibody levels against 260 foods and drinks, taken at home via a finger-prick sample. It suits people who want to review their diet against a wide list of foods rather than test a single suspected trigger.
Priciest food intolerance test among its direct comparators
A finger-prick blood test screening reactivity to 286 foods and drinks, aimed at people who want a blood-based sample rather than hair for intolerance testing.
Matches Randox's 200-marker panel for £39 less
An at-home finger-prick IgG test measuring reactivity to over 200 foods and drinks. Suited to adults exploring whether diet may be linked to symptoms such as bloating or fatigue.
Child IgG panel priced just under a like-for-like rival
An at-home finger-prick IgG test for children aged 2 to 17, measuring reactivity to over 100 foods and drinks. Suited to families exploring whether a child's diet may be linked to symptoms.
Priced at the group median, aimed specifically at children
A finger-prick blood test that screens a child's immune-style reaction to 100 common foods, aimed at parents exploring possible dietary triggers for a child's symptoms.
229-item blood panel priced 22% above the group median
A finger-prick blood test screening reactivity to 229 foods, for people who want a blood-based intolerance panel with an included nutritionist consultation.
Priciest food IgG panel among the peers shown
Checks IgG antibody reactions to over 200 foods and drinks from a home finger-prick blood sample, for people investigating whether specific foods might be linked to bloating, digestive discomfort or other symptoms.
Combines two panels for £91 more than the IgG test alone
A combined at-home test measuring IgG reactivity to over 200 foods and drinks alongside IgE sensitisation to food and environmental allergens. Suited to people who want both intolerance and allergy testing in one purchase.
