“I learnt that I have a moderate risk of lactose intolerance”

Intolerances and sensitivities to certain foods can cause a range of uncomfortable symptoms, making it important to identify and understand your body's unique needs. Checking for these sensitivities can lead to better dietary choices and improved well-being. Bethan's experience with our Intolerances and Sensitivities DNA Test highlights the benefits of gaining such insights:

"About ten years ago I watched a TV programme which explained how some people couldn’t digest regular milk but could drink filtered milk. It was a turning point for me. I didn’t know why, but filtered milk became my go-to for tea, coffee or milkshakes.

However, when I moved in with my boyfriend - a regular full-fat milk lover, he was convinced that filtered milk was a myth, and that it didn’t benefit me. Something didn’t feel right when I’d drink the regular full-fat milk, and I could never put my finger on why.

Fast forward to doing the Intolerances and Sensitivities DNA Test and I learnt that I have a moderate risk of lactose intolerance. The filtered milk claims were right all along!

The feedback and advice I received on lifestyle and dietary changes were easy to understand and simple to not just try, but keep as part of my daily and dietary routines. Most importantly, I was able to settle on having two types of milk in the fridge. Filtered semi-skimmed for me, and full fat for my boyfriend. And now I understand why."
