Before lockdown started, I was aiming to have at least 3 meat-free days a week. I know it’s minor, but it’s a big difference to what I would usually eat. It’s all gone a little pear-shaped since we’ve had a massive change in lifestyle but it’s something I’m turning to again. Now more than ever, people are trying to look after themselves. From reducing stress to ensuring their getting all the right nutrients. There’s also been a huge surge in people turning to a Vegan diet or choosing to remove certain things from their diet. But how do we know if we’re getting a well-balanced diet? Could a more plant-based diet work for you? There are so many questions.
Usually, it’s trial and error to find this kind of thing out. You try something in your diet and wait to see how your body reacts to it. It may take a while, but you will eventually figure out what works for you. There are so many variables with that, so it’s probably not actually going to be worth the effort. It’s almost impossible to self-assess if a particular food group is giving you unwanted side effects unless you are extremely thorough and meticulous (and it will probably mean no meals out at all!). This is where Health Labs nutritional testing comes in to play! Intrigued? So you should be!
Health Labs have two main forms of tests. One panel is if you’re already Vegan but want to make sure you’re getting all the nutrients it’s needed. It’s a great way to double-check that you’re getting a varied diet and can pinpoint where you might need to change what food you’re eating. It’s a simple way to look after yourself!
Another panel is the Health Labs test for those who are thinking about becoming Vegan or having a more plant-based diet. It’s a test that looks to see if your body responds negatively to any form of meat product. So it could show, for example, that you’re lacrosse intolerant or have some form of meat allergy. It’s a great way of finding out if a plant-based diet could really benefit you more than you might realise. The comprehensive Vegan Test Panel looks for 37 allergies from Cow’s Milk allergy to codfish!
Health Labs have over 4,500+ nationwide US locations and the tests can be done in a really short space of time. So it’s definitely worth giving them a go. Book your appointment here and you can also get 15% off your test!
