We are learning more about food intolerance such as lactose & fructose & how it impacts health. Our tests can help you underst& your symptoms & improve your health.
 

Lactose is a sugar found in milk, & fructose is a sugar found in fresh fruit & some vegetables, as well as in processed foods. Both of these natural sugars can cause intolerance & have trouble being absorbed in the small intestine, leading to digestive symptoms such as gas, painful bloating, cramping, & diarrhoea.

Over time, these intolerances can build up unhealthy bacteria in the gut, which feed off undigested sugars. Our hydrogen breath test can evaluate your body’s tolerance to both fructose & lactose, targeting specific milk proteins & fruit sugars.

Look no further and book an appointment today for an expert consultation for food intolerance in London.

When should I get tested?

You can take these tests at any time, without a doctor’s referral. You may have noticed digestive symptoms related to dairy or fructose intake, or would like to rule out food intolerance in the context of various GI symptoms.
