How does the ACALK Food Sensitivity Screening work?
Our Food Sensitivity Screening is split into three stages;
1. You take the AcalkTM saliva and urine test over the course of a normal day and note the down the results on the questionnaire. This is then sent to the laboratory for analysis to produce a profile of your vitamin and mineral make up. Once your profile has been established, the laboratory will provide a read out of foods you are sensitive to, from more than 375 foods.
2. A comprehensive symptom analysis questionnaire is completed by you and reviewed using a bespoke software programme against the symptoms and cures of several thousand previous participants.
3. You will be sent a comprehensive confidential report, which will provide you with the following assessment;
- List of the foods you should avoid, for how long, and a guide on how to reintroduce them
- A Detox programme
- Details of the Vitamins, Minerals and Essential Fatty Acids you need to take and what levels you need
- Candida Albican Assessment
- Dairy Intolerance Level
- Glucose Intolerance Level
- Acid Imbalance Level
- Gluten Imbalance Level
- Blood Sugar Imbalance
- Hormone Imbalance Level
- Histamine Imbalance Level
- Adrenaline Balance Assessment
- IBS Assessment
- Homocysteine Balance
- Stimulant Dependence
- PLUS
- Nutrition Diary Chart
- Food combining recommendation
The whole process takes between 21 - 28 days and is done via the post you do not need to visit our clinic to have the test done and is suitable for children and adults alike.
The test works by analsying the effects of food on your acid/alkaline balance. As mentioned previously a highly acidic environment is a perfect breeding ground for unhealthy bacteria producing toxins which impairs your immune system leading to a variety of health issues including food sensitivities. The saliva test measures the ph balance at the beginning of the digestive process whereas the urine test measures the ph balance at the end of the digestive process. In addition a pulse rate diary will assess the effects of different foods on your pulse rate as certain foods can increase or decrease your blood pressure. In this way your acid/alkaline balance is measured throughout the whole digestive process.
The test is based also at looking at the component of a specific food. For example you may have a sensitivity to say potato so you avoid it to de-sensitise yourself. You then consume a food from the same “family” as the potato but have a sensitivity to it. What this is suggesting is that the potato is not the problem but a component of it such as starch or a specific mineral etc.So your report may contain foods that you do not eat or eat rarely this is because at the time of taking the test you consumed a food which shares the same component as the food on the list, so the report is flagging up a possible problem with this food if you were to consume it. In this way the test is able to analyse against 375 foods.
What is this going to cost me?
As I mentioned previously many food sensitivity tests cost hundreds of pounds and don’t provide half the information this test provides. But don’t despair this food sensitivity test against 375 different foods along with a 7 page-detailed report will cost you no where near this!
