Overview of the Complete & Comprehensive Food Intolerance Test (Food Sensitivity Profile by Thyrocare)
Note: This is not a home kit-based stool test. It’s a comprehensive laboratory profile performed in a certified lab setting.
This is a laboratory screening profile that measures IgG reactivity to selected foods (total 218 items). Results are for dietary guidance (e.g., structured elimination and re-challenge) and are not a diagnosis of allergy or disease.
Medical disclaimer: This page provides general information about a laboratory screening service. Results do not diagnose disease or replace a consultation with a qualified clinician or nutrition professional. Do not change medications or treatment without medical advice.

What Is Food Intolerance?
Food intolerance here refers to a delayed IgG-mediated immune response to certain foods. This differs from IgE allergy which can trigger immediate reactions.
| Aspect | IgE Allergy (Immediate) | IgG Intolerance (Delayed) |
|---|---|---|
| Onset | Seconds to minutes | Hours to days |
| Typical reactions | Hives, wheeze, anaphylaxis | Digestive or skin discomfort, fatigue |
| Test type | IgE allergy testing | IgG screening profile |
| Diet action | Clinician-directed avoidance | Elimination/rotation/re-challenge with guidance |
Common signs (informational)
- Bloating or indigestion
- Headaches
- Skin discomfort
- Fatigue
Important note
This profile does not diagnose IgE allergies, coeliac disease, or any condition. For sudden/severe reactions, seek urgent care and discuss appropriate allergy testing with your clinician.

FAQs on the Food Intolerance Test
Is the test suitable for children?
Yes, generally from age 2+. For children under 5 years, consult a pediatrician first.
Is fasting required?
No, fasting is not required.
Is this the same as a food allergy test?
No. This is an IgG screening profile for delayed reactivity. Allergy (IgE) tests assess immediate reactions. Known allergies should continue to be avoided.
Will avoiding a food affect results?
Long-term avoidance (e.g., >3 months) may lower IgG levels and show a normal result. Do not reintroduce foods that cause severe symptoms without advice.
Why might I react to a food I don’t recall eating?
Occasionally due to cross-reactivity between similar proteins in different foods.
Do I need a re-test?
Often not required if symptoms improve and foods are reintroduced successfully. If repeating, allow about 6 months between tests.
