Food allergies

Food allergies are immune responses to certain foods such as eggs, nuts, and wheat.

Currently, there are two types of tests to detect the level of intolerance to certain foods: the Alcat food intolerance test and the Alpha 200 test. Both are blood tests but in no case are they completely reliable when it comes to discerning the main problem.  ...
