Welcome to MaxLife Weight Loss and Body Balancing
Food allergies and sensitivities can be challenging
Food allergies often appear in childhood but can develop at any time, even into adulthood. Sometimes it’s very obvious when a food causes a reaction, other times symptoms don’t show up for hours, making it difficult to know what’s causing your discomfort.
If you’re struggling with what appears to be a food-based reaction, food sensitivity testing in Overland Park can help identify what is causing your symptoms. At MaxLife Weight Loss and Body Balancing, we provide hair strand lab testing.

What to Expect
Food Sensitivity Testing in Overland Park
1
Step 1
Before scheduling your food sensitivity test, we’ll schedule a consultation with one of our providers. We’ll ask about your symptoms and dietary habits to determine if it seems like a food-based reaction.

Step 2
Food sensitivity testing is a quick process that uses a strand of hair. The sample extraction is painless and takes only a few seconds. The sample will then be sent to a lab to determine the results.

Step 3
After we’ve determined whether you have food sensitivity, you can work to eliminate the food from your diet. If you need help developing a nutrition plan, our providers can help. If your symptoms are not caused by food sensitivity, we can make further recommendations for the next steps.
