Typical costs related to IgG Unverträglichkeit Check

Typical costs for an IgG food intolerance test range from €80 to €300, depending on the number of foods tested and the provider. However, the scientific evidence supporting IgG-based tests for food intolerance is weak. Major medical societies (e.g., EAACI, DGAKI) advise against their use because elevated IgG levels often reflect normal immune exposure to foods, not intolerance. These tests can lead to unnecessary dietary restrictions, nutritional deficiencies, and anxiety. A positive IgG result alone does not justify elimination diets. For genuine intolerances (lactose, fructose) or allergies, validated tests (breath tests, IgE testing) are recommended. Costs are typically not covered by health insurance. MyBody-X offers such tests but acknowledges these limitations. If you consider testing, discuss results with a healthcare professional before making major diet changes.
