Description
What is Tested?
This test measures your body’s IgG antibody reactivity to 240 different types of foods – Dairy, Fish, Grains, Nuts, Fruits, Meat, Vegetables, and more. Using an established immunological technique, this test measures different immunoglobulins found in the body, IgG (subclasses 1, 2, 3) These immunoglobulins are tested separately to establish more of a clear picture of what food may trigger your symptoms.
How is it tested?
Using an established immunological technique, Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay is widely used to detect the presence of specific antibodies or antigens in a patient’s blood. It is a basic testing platform in a fully-automated protocol utilizing advanced robotics and barcoding to identify each specimen throughout the testing procedure. Antigen-specific antibodies, bound to antigen, are detected through spectrophotometric analysis.
In simpler terms, Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay is a common lab test used to check for specific antibodies or antigens in blood, helping diagnose diseases. The process uses automated technology to handle samples and ensure accuracy. It works by detecting antibody-antigen reactions, measured using light analysis. And the best part? All we need to test this is just a few blood drops on a card.
What’s the difference between Food Sensitivity and Food Allergy?
A Food Allergy is an immune system reaction where the body mistakenly identifies a piece of food as a threat, triggering an immediate response resulting in symptoms like hives, swelling, difficulty breathing or anaphylaxis.
A Food Sensitivity is a non-immune system response, often related to digestion or intolerances. Symptoms can include bloating, gas, headaches, or stomach discomfort, but they are usually less severe than an allergic reaction and don’t involve the immune system.
Do I need a Doctors’ Order to order this test?
Regulations vary by state and require a written or electronic request for patient testing. States that allow Direct Access Testing (DAT) are an exception to this rule – our consumers are allowed to take a test without a requisition authorized by a physician. Onsite Clinical Care works with a physician network to authorize tests in all states where our tests can be purchased.
Simply put, you don’t need a doctor’s order—we’ll take care of that for you!
Where is it tested?
After your sample is collected from the comfort of your home, it’s sent to one of our partner labs in either Washington State or Illinois. Why two locations? To efficiently manage the high volume of samples, we’ve partnered with labs in both states to ensure quick processing and timely results. Rest assured, your sample is handled by CLIA and COLA-certified facilities, meeting rigorous quality standards that go above and beyond.
Is this test covered by Insurance?
We encourage customers to submit claims to their insurance providers but cannot guarantee approval. Since our at-home kits eliminate the need for a doctor’s visit, insurance coverage may vary. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to explore coverage and reimbursement options for our services. If you choose to pursue this route, a member of our team will be happy to assist you.
Why do you offer this test?
We offer Food Sensitivity tests because we understand how frustrating and embarrassing it can be to experience unexplained symptoms like bloating, fatigue, or discomfort after eating. These tests empower you with insights into your body’s unique responses to certain foods, helping you make informed choices to feel your best and take control of your well-being.
Sustainability & Care
Our kit is designed with sustainability in mind, leaving behind minimal waste. Nearly all components are either used during testing or returned to our laboratory, ensuring nothing goes to waste. Unlike others, we avoid unnecessary packaging or decorative materials, focusing instead on reducing environmental impact. It might not be the flashiest kit, but it’s a thoughtful step toward a greener future.
At Onsite Clinical Care, we are committed to making healthcare simple and accessible for everyone across the U.S. That’s why we prioritize convenience with home sample collections that don’t require a doctor’s order—bringing care directly to you.
Symptoms of Food Sensitivities
Food sensitivities (or intolerances) differ from allergies because they typically involve the digestive system rather than the immune system. Symptoms are often less severe but can still significantly impact quality of life.
Symptoms include:
- Bloating or gas
- Stomach pain or cramps
- Diarrhea or constipation
- Nausea
- Rashes or skin irritation
- Flushing or redness
- Acne flare-ups
- Fatigue or low energy
- Mild sinus pressure
- Joint or muscle pain
- Mood changes, including irritability or anxiety
- Unexplained weight changes
When to Consider Testing for Food Sensitivities
- If you notice patterns of discomfort or symptoms that arise after specific meals or foods.
- Persistent bloating, gas, or irregular bowel movements without a clear cause.
- Chronic fatigue, skin rashes, or unexplained headaches that could be related to diet.
- If you or your family members have a history of food-related issues (e.g., lactose intolerance or gluten sensitivity).
- Before introducing or eliminating food groups as part of a new diet plan.
Food sensitivity testing helps identify triggers that may be contributing to chronic discomfort or health concerns. Understanding sensitivities allows for targeted dietary changes, improving symptoms and overall well-being without unnecessarily eliminating healthy foods.

I recently tried the food sensitivity test, and while I found it to be informative, there were a few issues that prevented me from giving it a higher rating. The process was straightforward, and the results were detailed, but I wish there had been more information on how to interpret the results and the price was a bit high with what was included in the kit. Would give 5 stars in the future with the improvements.

a good starting point, but the results seemed overwhelming with so many flagged foods

The variety of foods alone was impressive. Didn’t even know you could react to some of these foods
Verified Customer –
Result time took a little bit longer than I wanted, but I don’t have any complaints outside of that

Bought this as a gift for a friend, she liked it so much I bought one for myself just to see. It did not dissapoint
Verified Customer –
Some really weird foods on here I didn’t know existed like “Kohlrabi” , pretty nice test though, learned something with my results
Verified Customer –
I was skeptical of this site and test at first, but this really was easy to use, and the results were more detailed than I was expecting. Theres a tab on this page where people can see a sample of the report so I don’t know why people are acting surprised
Verified Customer –
This was insanely easy to use – I do recommend that everyone takes a photo of their return tracking number as it doesn’t reflect anywhere once you send it back. Their customer service was quick to provide it to me though
Verified Customer –
You need to send back the sample almost immediately after taking it otherwise it runs a risk of expiring. They have a note about this on their instructions but it is very easy to miss
