The Truth About Food Sensitivity Testing: When It Helps, When It Hurts, and What to Do Instead
In this episode of the Confidently Balance Your Hormones podcast, Dee Davidson, FDN-P talks about the controversial topic of food sensitivity testing. Many people turn to these tests seeking answers to chronic health issues like bloating, fatigue, and skin conditions, but is food sensitivity testing the best place to start?
We break down:
When food sensitivity testing is helpful: Situations where testing provides valuable insights for complex cases.
When it can hurt: The pitfalls of overly restrictive diets, potential mental health impacts, and why focusing solely on sensitivities doesn’t address the root cause.
Why gut health is key: How addressing gut dysfunction often resolves food sensitivities without needing to avoid dozens of foods.
What type of testing is accurate: Why we prefer the Zoomer panel and how it compares to other testing methods.
A better approach: Building a strong foundation of health, starting with digestion, stress management, and holistic practices to support your body’s healing.
