Guest guest Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 Has anyone taken the ELISA pin prick at home allergy test from York Labs? I am wondering how valid it is, anyone know or had good results with it. I know that it tests IGg food intolerances, but I wonder how reliable it is, thanks, Juli --- Idol <Idol@...> wrote: > Hi and welcome to the list! > > >Can you point me to some information that would be > helpful on allergies > >and healing my body?

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Has anyone taken the ELISA pin prick at home allergy test from York Labs? I am wondering how valid it is, anyone know or had good results with it. I know that it tests IGg food intolerances, but I wonder how reliable it is, thanks, Juli I have had all but 1 member of our family tested using York's IgA and IgG testing panels. As far as I can tell, their testing was accurate. I had noticed some symptomatic responses to the foods they isolated as being problematic, but I had missed others that they noted. We've been following their avoidance recommendations, and of course, eating NT style as well, since mid-May. I have noticed some significant improvement in our GI symptoms, as well as my son's ADHD symptoms. We are not done with the healing process, but I believe we are getting there. If you're interested in pursuing this further, you might join the Gluten-Free, Casein-Free, Native Nutrition group. Any questions you have on the subject of food intolerances would be very welcome there, and met by much experience in other members.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Thank you Rebekah, my son has some ADHD issues too! I cannot wait to test both of us! I ordered the tests and look forward to proceeding. I joined that other group, thank you, Juli --- Rebekah Dowd <rmd1019@...> wrote: > > > Has anyone taken the ELISA pin prick at home allergy > test from York Labs?
