You are unique, so are your symptoms and your results. Easy-to-understand lab results allow for a targeted and implementable elimination diet.
ONLY RELEVANT FOODS: The inFoods® IBS panel includes 18 foods that were statistically proven (in multiple sets of patients) to be the most impactful for IBS patients. More than 90 foods had been screened to be included into the inFoods® IBS panel but "only" 18 showed a remarkable difference to healthy controls (i.e healthy people also show an immune response to foods but do not develop symptoms).
CLEAR RESULT: inFoods® IBS gives clear “Yes or No Results” which is less confusing and easy to understand. Each food in the panel has an individual cut-off value to differentiate between "normal" and “elevated” immune responses.
DIET GUIDANCE: Alongside the test result, you receive food fact sheets for your positive foods. Those fact sheets will help you to eliminate your positive foods and inform you about dishes and beverages containing the culprit food.
The targeted IBS specific food panel allows for a manageable elimination diet. Symptom relief is normally observed after 2-4 weeks of elimination of the positive foods. (Restriction and timing for reintroduction of foods should be coordinated with your healthcare provider.)
Positive Foods:
When compared to patients without IBS, a positive food has an immune response (IgG immunoreactivity) that is ELEVATED above a normal level for this food.
Positive foods have been shown to be triggers for pain and bloating. They should be eliminated from the diet in order to find relief from pain and / or bloating.
Negative Foods:
When compared to patients without IBS, a negative food has an immune response (IgG immunoreactivity) that is at a NORMAL level for this food.
Negative foods are NOT supposed to be triggers for pain and bloating. They should NOT be eliminated from the diet in order to find relief from pain and / or bloating.
In the largest of its kind clinical study at the nation’s leading medical centers (Mayo Clinic, Harvard BID, University of Michigan and University of Texas Medical Center) 58% of IBS patients experienced at least a 30% improvement in abdominal pain when they stopped eating the foods identified as positive by the inFoods® IBS test.
The study was designed like a “medication study” with a real control arm. The clinical study divided patients into two groups. One group was given a diet based on their inFoods® IBS test results, and the other group was given a fake or placebo diet to follow. None of the patients in either group (or their doctors) knew which group they were randomized to.
The study data is groundbreaking and was recognized with the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) Presidential Award at the ACG World Congress in 2022.
Patients on the inFoods® IBS diet experienced a remarkable and sustained reduction in abdominal pain. The graph shows the decrease in pain from baseline (start; before diet) over the 8 weeks of the study. A relief of pain can already be seen after 2 weeks and continues to improve through the end of the study.

Patients on the inFoods® IBS diet experienced a remarkable and sustained reduction in bloating. The graph shows the decrease in bloating from baseline (start; before diet) over the 8 weeks of the study. Similar to pain, a reduction in bloating can already be seen at 2 weeks and continues though the end of the study.
"inFoods® IBS is an innovative personalized approach in the treatment of IBS, offering a safe and effective alternative to a traditional drug-based approach. The personalized inFoods® approach to IBS treatment has the potential to change the lives of millions of people suffering from this debilitating condition."
“The methodology that was used to select these foods is more rigorous and more evidence-based than any previous IgG based food sensitivity test.”
“We are excited to have the inFoods® IBS product as a new tool to help alleviate the suffering we see in our IBS patients. The relief of IBS symptoms in the clinical study, which we participated in, were significant, fostering enhanced quality of life for those under our care.”
“Using inFoods® IBS has led to a life-changing outcome for me. The relief from symptoms has significantly improved my daily life, and I am immensely grateful.”
