Allergy and Intolerance Testing in Leicester
Understand what’s really triggering your symptoms — with precise blood testing at The Health Suite
About Our Allergy & Intolerance Tests
At The Health Suite Leicester, we offer a comprehensive range of blood tests to help identify true allergies (IgE-mediated) and intolerances or sensitivities (IgG-mediated).
What Is the Difference Between Allergy and Intolerance Tests?
- Allergy tests measure IgE antibodies, which cause immediate reactions such as hives, swelling, breathing difficulties, or rapid symptom onset after exposure.
- Intolerance tests measure IgG antibodies, which are linked to delayed reactions. Symptoms may appear hours or days later and often include bloating, fatigue, headaches, or skin issues.
Our simple blood tests help uncover the root cause of your symptoms, guiding you towards personalised dietary and lifestyle adjustments that can make a real difference to your wellbeing.
You can:
- Book directly online for allergy or intolerance testing (including Phlebotomy).
- Receive a full report outlining your results.
- Optionally book a consultation with one of our doctors to interpret your results and create a tailored care plan.

Do you often get bloating, cramps, gas or irregular bowel habits after eating?
Digestive discomfort after meals can be triggered by food intolerances. Testing helps identify specific food triggers so you can adjust your diet and reduce symptoms like bloating, diarrhoea or stomach pain.
Do you regularly experience headaches, fatigue or brain fog after eating certain foods?
Do you regularly experience headaches, fatigue or brain fog after eating certain foods?
Some intolerances or delayed food reactions can cause non‑digestive symptoms such as tiredness, headaches or difficulty concentrating. Identifying triggers helps improve energy, clarity and day‑to‑day comfort.Are you noticing skin reactions like itching, rashes or eczema flares after eating?
Skin symptoms can be linked to food sensitivities or immune reactions. Testing pinpointing allergens or intolerances can clarify which foods are contributing to irritation and help guide effective avoidance strategies.
Do you suffer from sneezing, itchy eyes or a runny nose linked to food or environmental triggers?
Allergic reactions often involve the immune system and can cause respiratory symptoms. Testing identifies specific allergens so you can reduce exposure and manage symptoms more effectively.
Has unexplained joint pain, swelling or unexplained aches been a concern?
Inflammation triggered by food or immune responses can sometimes contribute to joint discomfort. Allergy and intolerance testing can help uncover dietary factors driving ongoing inflammation.
Are you struggling to pinpoint which foods or environmental factors worsen your symptoms?
When symptoms recur without a clear cause, structured testing can objectively identify food sensitivities, immune‑mediated allergies or environmental triggers — providing clarity and direction for management.

Click below to view useful info on a few of the common conditions we treat:
IgE‑Mediated Food Allergies
These are true immune reactions to foods (like nuts, dairy, or shellfish) that can cause hives, swelling, sneezing or even breathing issues. Testing identifies specific allergens so you can avoid triggers and reduce risk.
Food Intolerances & Sensitivities
Unlike true allergies, intolerances involve digestive or metabolic reactions (e.g., lactose intolerance). Testing helps determine which foods might be causing bloating, cramps or fatigue so you can make targeted dietary changes.
Environmental Allergies (Pollen, Dust, Mould, Pet Dander)
Respiratory or skin symptoms triggered by environmental allergens can be identified via testing, helping you know what to avoid and how to manage your symptoms effectively.
Eczema or Skin‑Related Reaction Triggers
Food and environmental allergies or sensitivities can worsen skin conditions like eczema or rashes. Identifying and avoiding specific triggers can reduce flare‑ups and improve skin comfort.
Chronic Digestive Symptom Contributors
Persistent bloating, diarrhoea, gas, nausea or stomach discomfort can be linked to food sensitivities or intolerances. Tailored testing helps clarify which foods may be contributing so you can adjust your diet.
