Food Sensitivity Testing in Atlanta
Are foods making you feel sick — even foods you think are healthy? Do you struggle with unexplained symptoms that don’t seem to have a clear cause? With just five one-inch strands of hair, our food sensitivity testing in Atlanta can help uncover how your body may be reacting to certain foods, nutrients, and environmental elements.
This simple, non-invasive test provides insight without needles, blood draws, or discomfort.
What Is Food Sensitivity Testing?
Food sensitivity testing helps identify foods and substances your body may not tolerate well. Unlike food allergies, sensitivities often cause delayed reactions, making them difficult to pinpoint without testing.
Our hair strand test offers a gentle way to gather information that can help guide dietary choices and support overall wellness.
Cost: $120

Common Symptoms of Food Sensitivities
Food or non-food intolerances may contribute to symptoms such as:
Nausea or digestive discomfort
Fatigue or low energy
Bloating, gas, constipation, or diarrhea
Acne, eczema, or skin irritation
Mystery weight gain
Hormonal imbalance or immune stress
Headache or brain fog
Because symptoms can appear up to 72 hours later, the trigger food may not be obvious.
How Hair Strand Testing Works
This test requires only five small strands of hair and is completely non-invasive. The hair sample is analyzed by a U.S.-based lab to evaluate potential sensitivities and imbalances.
There are no needles, no blood draws, and no special preparation required. See the video below on how it works.

Food Intolerance vs. Food Allergy
Food intolerances and food allergies are very different.
Food allergies often cause immediate immune reactions.
Food intolerances are related to digestion or irritation and can cause delayed symptoms.
For example, discomfort felt after Thursday’s lunch may actually be linked to something eaten earlier in the week. This delay is why testing can be so helpful. The testing has alerted the onset of diabetes and other major intolerances.
Why Food Sensitivity Testing Matters
When the body reacts to foods or substances it cannot tolerate, it may stay in a constant state of stress. Over time, this can affect digestion, immunity, energy levels, skin health, and overall wellness.
