FIT176 and Zonulin Test

Testing sensitivity to 176 foods, colorings and additives includes Zonulin Test

The FIT test is a patented multi pathway delayed food sensitivity test. This new technology measures both IgG and Immune Complexes, the most common food-related pathways in the body.

A clinical study showed the FIT TEST helped patients with the following symptoms:

• Anxiety / Depression
• Bloating / Stomach Pain
• Inability to lose weight
• Impotence / Libido
• Fatigue / Insomnia
• Joint Pain
• Constipation / Diarrhea
• Craving Sugar

WHAT IS ZONULIN?

Zonulin is a protein that is synthesized in intestinal cells and liver cells. It is a key biomarker for intestinal permeability and is the only regulator of intestinal permeability that is reversible. Zonulin is one of three ways the FIT test can diagnose a leaky gut, along with finding a sensitivity to Candida and multiple Food Sensitivities. It is estimated that anywhere between 50 and 100 percent of food intolerance sufferers have increased intestinal permeability.

Increased intestinal permeability can be caused by food allergies and sensitivities, stress, infections, and low stomach acid, among other causes. In a healthy gut, there are healthy cell junctions and good nutrient absorption. In a leaky gut, however, the Villi are damaged, there is poor absorption and the cell junctions are loose. This means that bacteria and unwanted items can pass through the gut, as seen in the picture to the right.
