KUN0031 4 GEN 0217 KUWAIT /KUNA-JZO0 HLT-KUWAIT-ALLERGY-ALCAT ALCAT Test helps overcome food allergies, other diseases By Hanouf Al-Suweiti KUWAIT, June 19 (KUNA) -- The ALCAT Test is a blood test for food and chemical sensitivities which measures the level in which the body accepts or rejects particular food. A specialist in one of the laboratories, Sindus Hassan told KUNA that the test measures the reaction of blood cells to substances including foods, food additives and chemicals that are not normally harmful. She said the ALCAT Test measures the reaction of blood cells to a foreign substance under conditions designed to mimic what actually happens when the food is consumed in real life. She added that by avoiding foods that test positive, symptoms are reduced or eliminated and you will probably feel more energtic when the major cause of weight imbalance is overcome. The test can help you create an individualized food plan designed to meet your needs and the benefits are usually seen within a matter of days. She emphasized that the ALCAT Test also showed to be effective in treating chronic diseases like migraine, skin problems, intestinal disorders, painful joints or muscles, frequent ear infections and hyperactivity in children, chronic fatigue and weight imbalance.
