How to get started
Contact us to schedule an initial nutrition assessment. At this appointment we will assess your current dietary patterns, address your dietary and medical issues and help you determine if you are a good candidate for the ALCAT testing. We will then give you a test to take with you to one of our preferred labs to take your blood, or arrange a lab tech to visit you at your home. The lab will send your blood to our testing center to be evaluated for food sensitivities.
In two weeks, we schedule a follow- up visit with you to review the test results and start a rotational diet.
How much does the ALCAT testing cost?
When you schedule your initial appointment please let us know if you are interested in the ALCAT food sensitivity testing and we will check with your insurance company to see if you are covered for the test and nutrition sessions. There are various ALCAT test options. Our dietitian nutritionist can help you determine which ALCAT test is best for you.
