What is ostrich intolerance and how does it differ from ostrich allergies?

Ostrich intolerance refers to a digestive issue where the body struggles to process ostrich meat, leading to gastrointestinal discomfort. This contrasts with an ostrich allergy, which is an immune response to proteins in ostrich meat, potentially causing more severe reactions like skin rashes, respiratory difficulties, or anaphylaxis. Intolerance primarily affects the digestive system, resulting in symptoms like bloating or diarrhea, while allergies involve a broader immune system response.

What are the common symptoms of ostrich intolerance?
  • Bloating
  • Gas
  • Abdominal pain
  • Diarrhea
  • Nausea
When should I consider getting a ostrich intolerance test?

If you regularly experience digestive discomfort such as bloating, gas, or abdominal pain after eating ostrich meat, it may be indicative of an intolerance. Persistent symptoms following ostrich consumption should prompt consideration of an ostrich intolerance test. Consulting with a healthcare professional can assist in determining whether these symptoms are related to intolerance or another medical condition.

How can I manage and cope with ostrich intolerance in my daily life?

Managing ostrich intolerance involves avoiding ostrich meat in your diet. This may require careful attention to food choices, particularly when eating out or trying exotic meats. Exploring alternative protein sources that don’t trigger symptoms is essential for maintaining a balanced diet. Consulting a dietitian or nutritionist can be helpful in identifying suitable meat alternatives and ensuring that dietary changes are nutritionally sound and manageable.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
