YorkTest is a leading scientific laboratory. Our tests are designed to allow customers to take a sample in the comfort of their own home and post it back to the laboratory for rigorous analytical testing.
 
On arrival at the laboratory your sample is processed with the utmost care and attention, and all the sample information is stored on a secure IT system. Each sample has a unique number to allow us to track it through the testing process. This enables all the chemical reagents and equipment used to be logged through the sample testing process. Once booked in, your sample is then tested by trained scientists using dedicated operating procedures to ensure that sample reproducibility is kept to a maximum.
 
All equipment used in the testing of the sample in the laboratory is scrupulously maintained and is of the highest calibre. All the tests conducted in our laboratory have dedicated quality control limits and the laboratory is also externally audited yearly to ensure we fulfil all the criteria required to meet internationally recognised standards.
 
Your test is checked at seven key stages and tracked intensively throughout the laboratory process. A trained senior scientist personally checks each test and we only release the results when we are completely satisfied of their accuracy. Once your sample has been tested it is disposed of in a secure manner and the information gained from your sample is held, in accordance with the highest legal requirements, in our secure data storage system. Each sample tested has a customised results pack assembled and dispatched to you, by first class post.

People will know if they suffer from a full-blown allergic reaction to a food, strong immediate reactions to foods such as nuts and shellfish are typical of classical allergy reactions. However, other effects of food sensitivity arent as clear. Intolerances to foods are very common, with up to 45% of the population suffering, yet doctors rarely understand the link between food intolerance and chronic conditions such as irritable bowel, bloating, constipation, diarrheoa, headaches, migraines, joint pains, eczema and tiredness. All too often doctors try and relieve symptoms such as these by giving expensive drugs, whereas relief from many different chronic health conditions such as these can be achieved by a change in diet. 45% of the population means that 2 million people in Ireland will be affected, and most people will know of someone who has symptoms of food intolerance, or knows that they react to foods. The difficulty is determining which combinations of foods are the problem. Every individual person is unique, even to others with similar conditions. For example, cow's milk, oranges and eggs may be responsible for Emilys headaches but safe for Jane who also suffers. Jane may need to avoid lentils, potatoes and yeast in order for her headaches to stop. Help is at hand with a simple testing service that identifies the exact foods responsible for food intolerance symptoms in each individual. In clinical studies over 3 out of 4 people who took the simple blood test and avoided the foods, felt better; an opportunity for one and a half million people in Ireland to feel fabulous and improve their attendance at work. This isnt a minor problem and is very relevant particularly in the current climate.
