What Is a Food Intolerance Consultation?

A Food Intolerance consultation helps determine whether your symptoms are linked to difficulty digesting certain foods or ingredients. Unlike allergies, intolerances typically cause digestive symptoms rather than immune reactions. Providers evaluate your symptoms, dietary patterns, and sensitivities to create a targeted plan for relief.

What We Review During Your Visit:
  • Symptom timing and reaction patterns
  • Digestive symptoms such as gas, bloating, cramps, nausea
  • Review of common triggers (dairy, gluten, fructose, additives)
  • Evaluation for underlying GI conditions
  • Personalized elimination diet and reintroduction guidance
  • Lifestyle, hydration, and nutritional recommendations

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Z-2-H Family Med & Urgent Care

What is a Food Intolerance?

A Food Intolerance occurs when your body has difficulty digesting certain foods, leading to digestive or discomfort-based symptoms rather than immune reactions.

What are common symptoms of Food Intolerance?

Typical symptoms include bloating, gas, stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, headaches, or fatigue after eating specific foods.

What foods commonly trigger intolerances?

Common triggers include dairy (lactose intolerance), gluten, artificial sweeteners, high-fructose foods, processed foods, and certain food additives.

How is Food Intolerance different from a Food Allergy?

Food Allergies involve the immune system and can cause severe reactions. Food Intolerances affect digestion and typically cause less immediate but persistent symptoms.

Should I seek urgent care for Food Intolerance symptoms?

Seek urgent care if symptoms are severe, persistent, involve dehydration, or if you are unsure whether the symptoms indicate intolerance or an allergy.

Can Food Intolerance be evaluated through telehealth?

Yes. Telehealth can help assess symptoms and guide dietary changes. However, an in-person evaluation may be recommended if symptoms are severe.

Do I need specific testing for Food Intolerance?

Testing may be recommended depending on symptoms. Many intolerances are identified through elimination diets and symptom tracking.

Is this visit covered by insurance?

Most insurance plans cover evaluations for Food Intolerance symptoms. Coverage varies based on your policy and medical need.

Can children be evaluated for Food Intolerance?

Yes. Children can also experience food intolerances and benefit from early evaluation and dietary guidance.

Can symptoms worsen over time?

Yes. Untreated intolerances may lead to chronic discomfort, digestive inflammation, or nutritional deficiencies.

What lifestyle changes help with Food Intolerance?

Common strategies include eliminating trigger foods, improving hydration, adjusting meal timing, and supporting gut health.

How does an in-home visit help with managing Food Intolerance?

In-home visits allow personalized discussion of symptoms and triggers in your own environment, leading to more tailored treatment recommendations.

What treatment options are available?

Treatment may include dietary adjustments, symptom relief medications, digestive enzymes, hydration guidance, and monitoring.
