Unfortunately, many people use the terms “food intolerance” and “food allergy” interchangeably, when in fact they are very different conditions. A food intolerance is a temporary reaction to a food which causes mild symptoms such as bloating, weight gain, skin breakouts, IBS or other common gut health issues like constipation, gas and cramping.
What does Bioscan Test for?The BioScan tests for food imbalances. A food intolerance may be linked to a temporary imbalance which may come back into balance by avoiding that food temporarily.
