Your Food Intolerance Questions Answered

I am always full of questions about my food intolerance, and often hear conflicting advice, confusing isn't it?  What really happens in my tummy when I eat gluten? How long does it take to fix? What's the difference between an intolerance and an allergic reaction? What sort of tests are there out there? Are they reliable? How will I survive without eating a real mince pie this Christmas?

Are blood test results, from a company like YorkTest, enough to convince your NHS Doctor to agree to a prescription for your intolerance? Should I take the results to my NHS Doctor?

I am also wondering if I take a YorkTest, should I be eating gluten a few weeks before I do the test?

So with the aim of getting your tricky questions answered, YorkTest have made a very kind offer of putting forward their food intolerance expert, Dr Gill Hart to answer any food intolerance questions you may have.  I will be collecting questions from readers via twitter over the Christmas holidays, but if you don't have a twitter account then feel free to comment on this post or use my facebook page to post your question. Dr Gill Hart will then answer your questions in the new year!

Dr Gill Hart can answer questions on a range of subjects relating to food intolerance, questions relating to YorkTest's food intolerance testing, or perhaps questions relating to eating healthy after your diagnosis. The YorkTest website has some information about Dr Gill Hart, but I'm just going to say that she knows her stuff.

So go ahead, follow me on twitter and tweet your questions with the tag #gfquestions and I will send them over to Dr Gill Hart, then post your answers over here in the new year!
