“I feel happier knowing that I have control over how my body reacts<\/strong>“<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

For a long time, 58 year old administrator Carol Kilmister had been suffering with chronic diarrhoea and a bloated stomach after certain meals.<\/p>\n

Carol explained how these symptoms had affected her during this time, “It ruined my experience of having a nice meal as I would just suffer after it. It affected going out for a meal to a restaurant with friends.”<\/p>\n

Carol came across YorkTest from a family member who had taken the test previously and decided to give it a go as well and get to the root of her symptoms.<\/p>\n

After taking a Premium Food Sensitivity Test<\/a>, Carol found she had IgG reactivity to a number of different foods including cow’s milk and eggs. Commenting on her results, Carol said “I was really surprised by the cow’s milk but I had a feeling it might have been eggs as I had been eating more of them in my diet.”<\/p>\n

After eliminating her trigger ingredients, Carol saw visible improvements almost immediately, “No more diarrhoea and no more bloating.”<\/p>\n

Talking about her experience with trying to eliminate multiple foods from her diet, Carol said ” It’s changed the way I cook and also the way I look at a menu. I am very selective with what I have and tend to choose a vegan option if possible. Finding the best cow’s milk substitute for me took a couple of weeks to suss out and the loss of nice bread was difficult but the results were so good it all felt worth it. ”<\/p>\n

YorkTest analyses your IgG reactions to 200 food and drinks<\/strong> \u2013 from common ingredients like cow\u2019s milk, gluten and egg, to health superfoods like kale and quinoa.<\/p>\n

The process, which involves sending a finger-prick blood sample to the company\u2019s laboratories revealed Carol’s intolerances. Following on from the test, the YorkTest Customer Service Team are on hand to answer any queries and offer follow-up advice. In her words, Carol found the customer service “very helpful”.<\/p>\n

When asked to sum up her experience with YorkTest and how her life changed since taking the test, Carol added: “I feel happier and more informed on how I can help myself live a healthier lifestyle.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
