What do the blue boxes on the ALCAT Test results mean?
The blue boxes include items that should be removed from the diet due to reactions with other items.
Is fasting required before taking the ALCAT Test?
No
What are the medication restrictions for the ALCAT Test?
It is not necessary to postpone testing if, despite medication use, inflammatory symptoms persist. However, to the extent medication can be reduced prior to testing, the patient should do so, as anti-inflammatory medications may have an effect on test results. Do not take any medications 3 to 4 hours before blood draw. Anti-rejection therapy will probably reduce test sensitivity.
