Q: What is the difference between “allergy” and “intolerance”?

Some of the symptoms of allergies and intolerances are the same or similar, but the differences between the two are very important. 5Strands® Affordable Testing only tests for “intolerances”, which represent the majority of reactions. An intolerance is a response that does not take place in the body’s immune system and may appear several hours or days after ingestion or exposure. While intolerances may cause reactions ranging from a mild skin rash to severe abdominal discomfort, they are not normally life-threatening. A true allergy is an immune system response. It is caused by the body mistaking a food or item as a harmful substance and releasing antibodies to fight it. The adverse reaction is usually rapid and can be life-threatening, even at microscopic levels. Some of the most common known food allergens are peanuts, tree nuts and seafood. 5Strands® Affordable Testing does NOT test for this type of reaction IgE allergies, which represents only 2% of all allergic/intolerance reactions. The best way to prevent reactions to intolerances is to identify and avoid foods and substances that trigger them. This is the job of 5Strands® Affordable Testing.

Q: What does each level stand for? The level of severity? So level 3 being in red being most likely?

Each level is the severity with red being the most troublesome. Think of it as being a stop light ... red - stop and make corrections, yellow use caution and green might be a future issue,
