Food Intolerance
Hi Doc,
I would please like to find out where I could go and have food intolerance tests done? I have a feeling that I may be wheat intolerant and would just like to make sure as whenever I eat wheat I get tired, bloated and constipated.
Thanks very much.

Dear MC
You need to ask your gp to refer you to a pathology lab where they will do the necessary tests. If you should be wheat intolerant or allergic, then click on 'Diet' at the top of this page and then on 'Food-related diseases' and read the articles on wheat and gluten allergy. For more information visit the SA Allergy Association Website at: www.allallergy.co.za
Best regards
