What is your result?
You will receive a PDF document in which your possible increased requirements are listed clearly and in detail.
Up to 60% suffer from an intolerance, especially Central Europeans.
According to the ProvonaBKK survey
Many intolerances creep into everyday life unnoticed and manifest themselves through diffuse symptoms that do not immediately point to a specific cause. Whether food, animal hair or pollen – there are numerous triggers that can cause discomfort.
What influence do intolerances have?
-
Physical changes
Intolerances can throw the body out of balance. Digestive problems or skin reactions are often the first warning signs that your body is not processing certain substances properly.
Typical symptoms:- Stomach pain, nausea and loss of appetite
- Flatulence, diarrhea or constipation
- Skin rashes and itching
- Headache
- Hair loss
-
Psychological complaints
Did you know that intolerances can also affect your mood? If the body is not working optimally, the psyche often suffers too. This manifests itself in emotional fluctuations or even persistent depressive phases.
Typical symptoms:- Depression
- Aggression
- Fears
- Mood swings
- Uncertainty
-
Chronic complaints
Chronic complaints are usually difficult to interpret, but hypersensitivity can also be a cause here. These constant, protracted problems lead to permanent restrictions.
Typical symptoms:- Chronic fatigue
- Migraine
- Joint problems
- Rheumatism
- Arthritis
What influences intolerances?
-
Food
- Fast food, lots of sugar, salt and saturated fatty acids as well as a monotonous diet can impair the intestinal barrier and increase the risk of intolerances.
- A balanced, plant-based diet and conscious eating support intestinal health and a balanced intestinal flora.
-
Stress
- Stress causes the body to release more stress hormones, which impairs digestion and can lead to nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea.
- Relaxation, enough sleep and a balanced diet can alleviate stress reactions.
-
Antibiotics
- Frequent use of antibiotics can eliminate both harmful and beneficial gut bacteria, affecting gut flora and digestion.
- A high-fiber diet and probiotics can strengthen the intestinal flora after antibiotic treatment.
-
Environment
- Pesticides, processed foods and additives can increase intestinal permeability, allowing harmful substances to enter the bloodstream.
- Eating unprocessed, seasonal and organic food can reduce exposure to pesticides and additives.
-
Influence
- In addition to genetic enzyme defects, pancreatic diseases, chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, infections or bacterial overgrowth can trigger intolerances.
- Gastrointestinal complaints should be examined and diagnosed by a doctor.

Frequently asked questions
-
What is a food intolerance?
A food intolerance occurs when the body cannot process certain foods properly, which leads to symptoms. Unlike allergies, intolerances usually affect the digestive tract. The cause is often a lack of enzymes or a reaction of the intestine to certain ingredients.
-
Typical symptoms of food intolerance
Common symptoms include flatulence, abdominal pain, diarrhea and nausea. These usually occur hours after eating and can be non-specific, making diagnosis difficult. Observing reactions to certain foods helps, intolerances to recognize intolerances.
-
Frequent food intolerances
The most common intolerances include lactose-, fructose– and gluten intolerance and histamine intolerance. These can cause various complaints and require special diets to avoid symptoms.
-
Difference between allergies and intolerances
Allergies activate the immune system and can trigger severe reactions such as shortness of breath. Intolerances, on the other hand, usually lead to digestive problems without involving the immune system. We do not test for allergies, but for a reaction to food & substances.
-
Influence of stress and lifestyle on intolerances
Stress has a negative effect on digestion and can exacerbate intolerances as it weakens the intestinal barrier. A lack of sleep and an unbalanced diet can also exacerbate symptoms.
-
Dealing with intolerances in everyday life
Intolerances often require dietary changes that affect everyday life. A positive approach and creative recipes can help to maintain quality of life despite restrictions.
