Elaine Bramley

Symptoms: digestive issues

Food Reactions: wheat, prunes, egg white, soya, seeds

“I feel so much better and happier”

For two hears, housewife Elaine Bramley , was dealing with a range of unpleasant symptoms that included an upset stomach and needing to use the toilet often.

When asked about how these symptoms affected her life, Elaine said: “I wasn’t able to do the things I wanted to which included lots of activities.”

When Elaine heard about YorkTest from a friend who had recommended it, she decided to give it a try in a bid to find out what was causing her digestive problems.

After taking the Premium Food Intolerance Test, Elaine’s results indicated that her body was reacting to wheat, prunes, egg white, soya and some seeds. We asked Elaine how she felt after removing these trigger foods. “After a while I started to feel a lot better”. Elaine has also lost nearly two stones in the process and has continued to follow her diet plan.

Our test analyses your IgG reactions to 200 food and drinks – from common ingredients like gluten and cow’s milk, to health superfoods like kale and quinoa. The process involves sending a finger-prick blood sample back to YorkTest, Elaine then received her results within 7-days through the Wellness Hub, in an easy-to-read traffic light-based format.

Eliminating the trigger foods and sticking to her diet plan has helped clear Elaine’s symptoms. When asked about her nutritional consultation and experience with our Customer Care Team, Elaine found them to be “very helpful.”

When asked how life had changed since taking the test and how she would summarise her experience, Elaine concluded: “I feel so much better and happier finding help when I had nearly given up.”
