Food sensitivity testing - what do you think?


Recommended Posts

What's the Whole30 position on food sensitivity testing? I remember one poster mentioned here that she narrowed down sensitivities she would never have figured out with Whole30 alone, and that removing those foods from her diet really helped her. Personally, I'd love to know for sure if things like dairy or gluten give me migraines- it's hard to know for me because there are often other triggers that could be blamed, like heat, lack of sleep, stress, etc.

 

I've read online that these tests are not very accurate though.

 

What do you all think?

Tests aren't accurate. The best way to test is to keep a food journal with how you feel after a meal. and there are several common allergens that are allowed on w30 (eggs, seafood, tree nuts, coconut) that elimination would be the only way to find out whether it's a trigger for you. It's really all trial and error
