The FoodSafe Basic Panel tests for 94 of the most commonly eaten foods, plus a Candida Screen. MVL pioneered and uses the well-validated ELISA method to measure IgG4 antibodies for food sensitivity testing. This test provides a comprehensive report and are reported low, moderate, and high.
Sometimes it is not food sensitivities but it’s the infection, Candida. Candida is normally found in very small amounts in the human intestinal tract; small amounts do not cause problems in a healthy person. Too much Candida can result in symptoms very similar to those caused by food allergies. Moderate or High on the Candida screen means that your body has produced high numbers of antibodies to Candida at some time and should be treated to maintain optimal gut health.
MEDICATIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
Medications such as antihistamines, methotrexate, tricyclic antidepressants, H2- receptor antagonists (e.g., ranitidine, cimetidine), proton-pump inhibitors, and over the counter pain and fever reducers do not interfere with the accuracy of the ELISA test method.
Immune suppressive medications (e.g.: prednisone) or a weakened immune system (e.g.: due to chemotherapy) may result in the inability to mount an antibody response to varying degrees. These factors DO NOT interfere with the accuracy of the ELISA test method but may result in low test values. Meridian Valley Lab’s ELISA test method has not been assessed against any biologic or monoclonal antibody therapy. The level of interference is not established. The level of interference from heterophilic antibodies is not established.
This medication list is not inclusive. Please discuss your medications with your health care practitioner. Some practitioners may advise their patients to discontinue certain medications for a period of time depending on their practice and experience.
