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.
The Food Sensitivity Test checks IgG antibody levels against more than 200 foods and drinks from a single finger-prick blood sample you collect at home. IgG antibody testing is commonly used to explore whether specific foods might be linked to symptoms such as bloating, cramps or other digestive discomfort, though it does not diagnose a food intolerance and a GP should be consulted about persistent symptoms.
Against the 12 tests in its comparison group, this panel's 200 biomarkers sit close to the median of 218, so it is neither the broadest nor the narrowest option. At £178 it is priced above every peer listed in the sheet, which is the main reason it scores low for value for money; Check My Body Health's Body Intolerance Test, for example, checks 1,500 foods for £34.99, and its Complete Food Intolerance Test checks 990 for £32.99. It scores well for clarity and documentation, since the listing sets out a detailed description, a stated turnaround and clear collection options, though it does not list the specific foods tested or explain what the report looks like.
Trust signals score highly, reflecting Randox Health's Trustpilot rating of 4.6 from 29,705 reviews, its UKAS ISO 15189 accredited lab and CQC registration. Results and follow-up scores low, because this test is not reviewed by a doctor as standard.
This may suit you if you want a single, well-documented at-home test to explore possible IgG reactions across a broad range of foods, without needing to visit a clinic. Randox Health's Trustpilot score and lab accreditation may also appeal if you value a well-reviewed, accredited provider.
If price or marker count matters most, look at Check My Body Health's Body Intolerance Test, which checks 1,500 foods for £34.99, or its Complete Food Intolerance Test at £32.99 for 990 foods; both test far more foods for substantially less than this £178 panel. If you want a doctor to review your results, this test does not offer that as standard.
You collect a finger-prick blood sample at home using the kit provided and post it to the lab. Results are provided within 10 working days of the sample reaching the lab, and are not reviewed by a doctor as standard.
This home finger-prick test measures IgG antibody reactions to over 200 foods and drinks. At £178 it costs more than any of the peers in its comparison group, several of which test far more foods for a fraction of the price, and results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard.
The listing publishes a detailed description, a stated turnaround, clear collection options, the sample type; it does not state the biomarkers measured, what the report looks like.

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.
