James&#8217;s symptoms made it difficult for him to play with friends and had to take time off school, leaving him unable to enjoy a carefree childhood. His symptoms also affected his day-to-day life, leaving James upset when vomiting and unable to play football with his friends.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-229890 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/08\/1000011963-scaled-e1700234365463-183x300.jpg\" alt=\"9 year old boy with light hair and a red t-shirt smiling at the camera\" width=\"183\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After his parents tried to help James by keeping a food diary and seeing health providers, James&#8217;s parents came across YorkTest at the recommendation of another parent from James&#8217;s school. After taking a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/products\/foodscan-junior-test\/\">Junior Food Sensitivity Test<\/a> with YorkTest, James discovered that his body was producing IgG antibodies when encountering cow&#8217;s milk and green vegetables. The intolerance to cow&#8217;s milk caught James&#8217;s parents by surprise as did his sensitivity to certain vegetables.<\/p>\n<p>When asked how James felt after removing his trigger foods, his parents said: \u201cIt&#8217;s given us direction and answers and information to take to the doctor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/products\/foodscan-junior-test\/\">Junior Food Sensitivity Test<\/a> analyses your child&#8217;s IgG reactions to 100 food and drinks \u2013 from common ingredients like cow\u2019s milk, wheat and egg white, to health superfoods like kale and quinoa.<\/p>\n<p>The process, which involves sending a finger-prick blood sample to the company\u2019s laboratories revealed the foods that James was reacting to, in an easy-to-read traffic light-style format, indicating which foods were highly reactive and which ones were only slightly reactive.<\/p>\n<p>When asked how they found the elimination process, James&#8217;s parents commented: Still in the process of finding alternatives and researching what has cow&#8217;s milk in it. Hoping to see an improvement in the next few weeks&#8221;. His family also found the customer care team were \u201cvery helpful, especially Jess who was friendly and understood the situation\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>When James and his family were asked how they would summarize their experience with YorkTest, James concluded with: \u201cI know what has been causing my illness and the YorkTest result allows me to manage my food so I am not in pain or ill.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know what has been causing my illness and the YorkTest result allows me to manage my food so I am not in pain or ill<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":791,"template":"","review_category":[156,159],"class_list":["post-790","reviews","type-reviews","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","review_category-ibs-digestive-problems","review_category-nausea"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reviews\/790","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\/791"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"review_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review_category?post=790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
