Our guides are here to help you understand food intolerance and make sensible, practical choices. This is how we write them and keep them accurate.
Who writes our guides
Our guides are written by the UK Food Intolerance team. Where a guide has been written or checked by a named specialist, you’ll see their name, role and qualifications at the top and bottom of the guide.
What we check them against
- NHS guidance, especially on allergies, coeliac disease and lactose intolerance, which need medical testing.
- Published research and reviews, including where the evidence for a method is limited.
- Our own experience of answering customer questions every day.
Being honest about our test
We sell hair sample intolerance tests, and our guides link to our tests where they’re relevant. Our test uses bioresonance, a complementary and alternative (CAM) method that sits outside mainstream medicine. We say so plainly in every guide, and we never present it as a diagnosis.
What our guides won’t do
- Give medical advice or diagnose a condition.
- Tell you to cut out whole food groups for long periods without support.
- Use made-up reviews, testimonials or people.
If your symptoms are severe, new or getting worse, please speak to your GP.
Keeping guides up to date
We review our guides regularly and when guidance changes. The “Last updated” date on each guide shows when it was last changed.
