Optiway Food Sensitivity testing

Certain food types might "trigger" an adverse reaction in your body, commonly known as a food sensitivity.

Food sensitivities can cause symptoms that disrupts your daily life (acne, bloating, sinusitis etc).  

Food sensitivities are very difficult to identify, since it can sometimes manifest even 72 hours after exposure to a food or drink. 

Because it is so difficult to pin point food sensitivities via conventional routs (keeping a food diary etc), 

The Optiway Test is a "shortcut" to identifying these trigger foods. 

Ultimately, doing the test can help determine a treatment plan to minimize symptoms.

It can identify your tolerance to 222 different food and drinks.  

A blood sample is taken via a minimally invasive finger prick. 

The blood sample is sent to a lab for testing to be conducted.

R4500 per test. This does not include the feedback session of R350 per 30 minutes spent.

KEEP IN MIND:

For the test to accurately pick up your immune system's response to a food type, it needs to have been included in your diet regularly for at least 6 weeks prior to testing.

Do not take the test if you are on any immune suppressing medication or treatments, including:

• Long term cortisone treatment
• Radiation and chemotherapy
• Immunity suppressing drugs (in case of organ transplant etc.).

Not suitable for children under 

the age of two years.
