"Home Testing Essential For Allergy Prevention" Claim AllergyBestBuys



Withh recent research indicating that by 2060 up to half the population will be expected to have hayfever, interest is increasing in ways for detecting and preventing many different types of allergies. The Imutest Allergy check home testing kit from AllergyBestBuys is a must to assist every home in preventing and alleviating a host of allergies.

The Imutest Allergy check home testing kits test for cat, dustmite, pollen, milk or egg allergy with a hospital-standard test you can do at home with results in just 30 minutes. This is a time saving option that can reassure families what allergies they may or may not have.

Janet Rhodes, head buyer at AllergyBestBuys a mail order supplier of a full range of anti-allergy products, said, “Imutest Allergy check is a range of home allergy tests to help people with asthma, eczema and other allergy related diseases to find out what could be triggering their symptoms.”

AllergyBestBuys advise that you should first take the General Allergy Check, which shows whether your level of allergy antibodies (IgE) is high or normal. If your result indicates a high level you can then identify your specific allergy using the tests for an allergy to Cats, Dust mites, Pollen, Milk and Eggs.

Simply add a drop of blood obtained safely and easily with the finger pricker provided. The test kit detects raised levels of IgE allergy antibodies in the blood, same as a hospital allergy test.

Once you know what you are sensitive to you can confidently seek medical advice and develop a management plan to help cope with your allergy and reduce or possibly eliminate your symptoms.

Imutest Allergy Check® has been registered with the UK medical device regulators (MRHA) and has CE accreditation through the British Standards Institution (BSI) for self test use and also for professional use by doctors, pharmacists and laboratory scientists throughout Europe according to the EU IVD directive 98/79/EC.

Allergy UK says that allergy is widespread and affects approximately one in four of the population in the UK at some time of their lives. Each year the numbers are increasing by five per cent and up to half of these are children. It is important to continually keep checking for allergies because if you have for example hay fever-like symptoms such as a blocked or runny nose and itchy eyes it is important to identify the trigger that sets of these reactions so you can take steps to avoid exposure to it. Allergies can start in childhood or as an adult as sensitivity can build up over time, even to allergens that you were not sensitive to before. Similarly, once you have tested positive it is important to re-test yourself from time to time, as some allergies can subside or children can grow out of them.

The Imutest Allergy check home test kits from Allergy Best Buys complements its already extensive collection of tried and tested allergy relief products for the home.
