Lactose and gluten intolerance testing package
Lactose and gluten intolerance is the most common digestion disorder, where the person lacks the means to digest lactose (found in milk products) and gluten (found in cereals). The symptoms may range from slight stomach ache and bloating to diarrhea, intestinal cramps, and blood in stool. Generally, the intolerance does not manifest suddenly, but only after eating the relevant foods in large quantities frequently for a long time.
Today, lactose and gluten intolerance is associated with many other disorders, including indigestion and skin problems (psoriasis, rash, tingling), mental issues such as depression, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases such as hypo- or hypertension, high blood cholesterol, etc.
Confido provides lactose and gluten intolerance testing which lets us determine if your body can digest lactose- and gluten-containing food properly. For testing, make an appointment with our nutritional consultant or family medicine specialist. You will get the results within ten days.
