How to Read the Food Intolerance Report (Non-diagnostic)

Use the report as a structured input for diet-planning conversations; it is not a diagnosis of food allergy or disease.

Food intolerance vs food allergy (quick clarity): This profile is IgG-based reactivity screening. Food allergy testing is different and typically involves IgE and clinical evaluation. If you suspect an acute allergy or severe reaction history, consult a qualified clinician.
