His symptoms had been gradually getting worse over a six to seven year period.<\/p>\n<p>When asked about how these symptoms affected his life, Craig said: \u201cEveryday was a grind, but the acne was particularly embarrassing as I\u2019m a grown man. There was nothing I couldn&#8217;t do but things like meetings would leave me very self-conscious. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After searching online, Christopher came across YorkTest and decided to give food sensitivity testing a go to try and address the root cause of his symptoms.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-232972 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/08\/image0-scaled-e1702037735671-278x300.jpeg\" alt=\"middle aged man taking a selfie in a black shirt\" width=\"278\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>That&#8217;s when he ordered the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorktest.com\/us\/products\/premium-food-sensitivity\/\">Premium Food Sensitivity Test<\/a>, with his results indicating that his body was reacting to egg yolk, milk, sesame seed, flax seeds and yeast.<\/p>\n<p>Within two weeks of removing his trigger foods Craig began to see his symptoms improve. When we asked Craig how he felt after removing these trigger foods, he said &#8220;100 times better.&#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. Craig then received his 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 his diet plan has helped clear Craig&#8217;s symptoms and enabled him to resume his normal life. When asked about the elimination process, Craig found it &#8220;very easy&#8221; and he also lost weight as a result.<\/p>\n<p>Craig also had a positive experience with the nutritional consultation, &#8221; I was told to cut out my trigger foods and reintroduce them slowly&#8221; and he thought the customer service team were &#8220;very helpful&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>When asked how life had changed since taking the test and how he would summarize his experience,\u00a0 Craig concluded: \u201cI improved dramatically.
