Food Allergies vs. Food Sensitivities
Food Allergies
Food allergies occur when the immune system mistakenly identifies certain foods as harmful, triggering an immediate reaction. This response is driven by the production of IgE antibodies, which cause the release of chemicals like histamine. Symptoms can appear within minutes to a few hours and may include hives, swelling, difficulty breathing, or even anaphylaxis. Because food allergies can be severe and life-threatening, they require prompt medical attention.
Food Sensitivities
Food sensitivities are non-allergic reactions when the body has difficulty processing certain foods. These reactions may involve the digestive system, enzyme deficiencies, or non-IgE immune responses. Unlike food allergies, symptoms are typically delayed—appearing several hours to days after consuming the trigger food—and are usually less severe. Common symptoms include bloating, headaches, fatigue, and digestive discomfort. While food sensitivities are not life-threatening, they can significantly impact your quality of life and overall well-being.

FAQs
Gut health refers to the optimal functioning of the entire digestive system, including the stomach, intestines, and the microbes that live within them. A healthy gut efficiently processes food, absorbs nutrients, and eliminates waste, while maintaining a balance of beneficial bacteria that support digestion and overall health. Good gut health is linked to various aspects of well-being, including:
- Improved digestion: Efficient breakdown of food and proper absorption of nutrients.
- Strong immune system: About 70% of the immune system resides in the gut, so a healthy gut plays a vital role in defending against pathogens.
- Mental health: The gut-brain axis connects the digestive system to the brain, influencing mood, cognition, and mental health.
- Reduced inflammation: A healthy gut can help minimize inflammation throughout the body, reducing the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease.
Food sensitivity testing helps identify foods that may cause delayed immune responses, such as bloating, headaches, fatigue, or skin issues. Unlike allergies, sensitivities often lead to chronic symptoms rather than immediate reactions.
