What is a Food Sensitivity?

A food sensitivity occurs when your immune system reacts to certain foods, causing adverse symptoms like bloating, headaches, or fatigue.

Benefits Of Food Sensitivity Tests

Take the guesswork out of identifying the foods causing your negative symptoms. With the OptiWay Food Sensitivity Test, you’ll receive a personalised report that categorises your ideal food choices. This report empowers you to optimise your eating plan and eliminate foods that your body doesn’t tolerate well, helping you feel your best.

Allergies vs Food Sensitivity

Allergies typically trigger immediate reactions, while symptoms of food sensitivities may take up to 72 hours to appear. Unlike allergies, food sensitivities often have prolonged effects, negatively impacting daily activities and causing significant discomfort.

Managing Food Sensitivity

After completing the Optiway Test, you’ll receive a comprehensive, tri-colored report along with the Optiway Food Sensitivity Support Guide. This empowers you to tailor your diet by eliminating problem foods and incorporating more of what your body truly needs for optimal health.

The Optiway Food Sensitivity Test is an easy-to-use tool that identifies which foods to avoid for better health. It analyses your response to a comprehensive menu of 268 different foods, providing personalised insights to guide your dietary choices.

If you’ve experienced symptoms like migraines, eczema, skin rashes, fatigue, joint pain, bloating, IBS, diarrhoea, nausea, sinusitis, anxiety, constipation, acne, or depression—and struggled to find the cause—you might have a sensitivity to specific foods or drinks.

Food sensitivities occur when your body reacts adversely to certain foods, and these reactions are unique to each individual and the specific food in question. Unlike food allergies, which affect only about 2% of the population, food sensitivities are far more common and can have a significant impact on your well-being.

The Optiway Food Sensitivity Test is the most effective and accurate way to identify which foods trigger negative reactions and which can be safely enjoyed, empowering you to make informed decisions for your health.
