“Let the Food be thy Medicine” Hippocrates
As you know, Food can either be beneficial or can have a negative impact on your health. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the food you can eat and food you should avoid. For that, we offer the IgG Food Map which is one of the most comprehensive food intolerance tests.
This screening panel includes 190 foods plus Candida, providing a convenient and comprehensive way to identify potential adverse food reactions. It also features a hemp allergy marker, reflecting the increasing prevalence of hemp as both a food ingredient and a source of medical CBD.
Additionally, this test measures your level of Candida albicans—a strain of yeast that is beneficial in small amounts but can disrupt your body’s balance when overgrown (Candida overgrowth).
IgG (Immunoglobulin G) is an immune antibody that signals sensitivity to specific foods. When your body produces IgG reactions, it can place stress on your immune system, potentially triggering inflammation throughout the body. For this reason, we recommend IgG food testing as a valuable tool to identify which foods may be causing inflammation and to guide a targeted elimination diet.
Many individuals with multiple IgG food sensitivities experience symptoms such as headaches, migraines, skin problems, joint pain, and other types of discomfort. By eliminating foods that test positive for IgG reactions, these symptoms often show significant improvement.
The IgG Food Map + Candida test screens for sensitivities to a wide range of foods, including:
-Dairy
-Beans and Peas
-Fruits
-Grains
-Fish/Seafood
-Meat/Fowl
-Nuts/Seeds
-Vegetables
-Herbs/Spices
-Coffee/Tea/Cocoa
Utilising the latest and most reliable technology, this test employs GPL’s xMAP® platform, which offers superior precision in detecting food antibodies compared to traditional methods.

By identifying food sensitivities, the IgG Food MAP can provide valuable insights to help manage these conditions more effectively.
An elimination diet helps identify and manage food sensitivities by temporarily removing specific foods based on clinical symptoms and IgG Food MAP findings. Typically lasting 2 to 3 months, this approach is structured around four essential pillars that provide clear guidance and support throughout the process.
