Читать книгу The Food Intolerance Bible: A nutritionist's plan to beat food cravings, fatigue, mood swings, bloating, headaches and IBS - Antoinette Savill, Antoinette Savill - Страница 44

You scores in each of the three different sections do not wholly alter the process of identifying food intolerance, nor which Plan you should follow. However, they do help you to distinguish between the different effects food intolerances are having in your body, as well as potentially highlighting other causes of your symptoms. This also simplifies completing the questionnaire next time, since you may only have to repeat the one relevant section rather than the entire questionnaire.

Section One is clearly mostly related to digestive issues, whereas Sections Two and Three refer to things going on elsewhere in the body. If your total score is 36 or more, and your score for Sections Two and Three (added together) is twice that of Section One, then you could have a leaky gut but without the associated digestive symptoms. In this instance it would be worthwhile testing your intestinal permeability (see urine test). However, please note that it is not worth taking this test if other markers within the digestive system are going to be measured and treated first.

If your score in Section One is half or less that of the combined totals of Sections Two and Three, then take the Intestinal Permeability test.
