Vega testing is done with a Vega machine. The Vega machine is used for Food Intolerance Testing and Mineral and Vitamin Deficiency Testing. The process is painless, and there are no needles involved. You will be asked to hold a metal probe in one hand and lay your other hand palm up on a table. A stable acupuncture point on your finger or hand will be used to do the Food Intolerance Testing. As each substance is added to the machine a probe will be pushed down on the acupuncture point on your finger or hand. The machine indicates whether or not there is a resistance to the substance. Individual substances are added separately, and then if necessary a combination is added, depending on your diet and your results form the Food Intolerance Testing. You will be given a handout with the results for the Food Intolerance Testing and the Mineral and Vitamin Deficiency Testing. This is accompanied by an advice sheet offering nutritional advice as well as supplement and/or remedy advice. 

What can Vega testing help?

Food Intolerance Testing - over 100 foods tested

Ailments like digestive upsets, irritable bowel, eczema, psoriasis, migraines, weight gain, catarrhal problems and low energy can be helped through Food Intolerance Testing. 

Eczema Food Intolerance Test

A specifically designed test for eczema has been created to test for a number of foods typically known to aggravate eczema in some cases.  For example cow's milk, citrus fruit and wheat.

Mineral / Vitamin deficiencies
Some imbalances in the body can be because of deficiencies in minerals or vitamins. Due to over farming of the soil in the last 70 years, many of us who eat a healthy diet are not actually getting the essential minerals and vitamins we need for a healthy system as the food itself is depleted. Some foods like refined sugar actually strip the body of some essential vitamin and minerals.

Recurring infections, lack of energy, menstrual imbalances, unhealthy skin/hair/nails can often be a manifestation of a deficiency. Many people seem to take many weeks to recover from a flu, tummy bug or even a cold. This is most likely due to a deficiency.
