Charlotte felt bloated and nauseous on a daily basis with symptoms akin to IBS.<\/p>\n<p>When asked about how these symptoms affected her life, Charlotte said: \u201cI always felt nervous about what I could eat and how it would affect me. Sometimes the symptoms would be over the course of a couple of weeks and other times they were instant. I constantly felt sick too, which is never a pleasant feeling.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte added &#8220;I was always concerned about meals out or at friends&#8217; houses, about how my body would react.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Through a colleague at the RNLI, Charlotte heard about YorkTest and decided to try it in a bid to find out the root cause of her symptoms.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-223137 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/08\/Charlotte-Earle-208x300.jpg\" alt=\"woman with short hair posing for a selfie\" width=\"208\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>After taking the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/products\/premium-food-sensitivity\/\">Premium Food Sensitivity Test<\/a>, Charlotte&#8217;s results indicated that her body was reacting to wheat, gluten, cow&#8217;s milk, egg white and peanuts.<\/p>\n<p>We asked Charlotte how she felt after removing these trigger foods. \u201cOver the course of a couple of weeks, the bloating had vastly reduced and I no longer felt sick all the time. A huge difference and one I&#8217;m massively grateful for.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After a few days I started to feel better and as time went on over the weeks and now months, I feel even better and back to being my normal self again. After quite a few years of issues it&#8217;s great to feel like me again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Our test analyses your IgG reactions to 200 food and drinks \u2013 from common ingredients like gluten and cow&#8217;s milk, to health superfoods like kale and quinoa.<\/p>\n<p>The process involves sending a finger-prick blood sample back to YorkTest, Charlotte then received her results within 7-days through the Wellness Hub, in an easy-to-read traffic light-based format.<\/p>\n<p>Eliminating the trigger foods and sticking to her diet plan has helped clear Charlotte\u2019s symptoms, &#8220;Over the course of a couple of weeks, the bloating had vastly reduced and I no longer felt sick all the time. A huge difference and one I&#8217;m massively grateful for.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked about her customer service experience, Charlotte commented: \u201cvery nice and friendly, helpful and caring.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked how life had changed since taking the test and how she would summarize her experience, Charlotte concluded: \u201cI&#8217;m so grateful I took the test, I was concerned about avoiding so many key foods but I feel hugely better now, it&#8217;s all worth it. It&#8217;s about finding things you can eat rather than dwelling on what you can&#8217;t.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m so grateful I took the test, I was concerned about avoiding so many key foods but I feel hugely better now, it&#8217;s all worth it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":755,"template":"","review_category":[],"class_list":["post-754","reviews","type-reviews","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reviews\/754","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reviews"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reviews"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/755"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=754"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"review_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review_category?post=754"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
