How are IgG Unverträglichkeitstest and Wechseljahre related?

TIKKI knowledge answer
The relationship between IgG food intolerance tests and menopause is not supported by scientific evidence. IgG tests are often marketed to identify food sensitivities, but their clinical validity is weak. Menopause involves hormonal shifts that can affect digestion, immune function, and gut permeability. Some providers claim IgG testing can help manage menopausal symptoms by identifying trigger foods, but no robust studies confirm this. The IgG antibodies measured are typically a normal immune response to food proteins and do not reliably indicate intolerance. While hormonal changes during menopause may influence gut health, IgG tests are not a validated tool for assessing this. Women experiencing menopausal symptoms should focus on evidence-based strategies: a balanced diet rich in phytoestrogens, regular exercise, stress management, and, if needed, medical guidance for hormone therapy. IgG testing is not recommended and may lead to unnecessary dietary restrictions and anxiety. Evidence level: marketing/unclear. Caveat: no high-quality clinical trials link IgG tests to menopause management.
