Description
Sesame intolerance differs from sesame allergies in that it does not trigger an immune system response. Sesame allergies involve the immune system recognizing specific sesame proteins as harmful, leading to allergic reactions, such as hives, swelling, or respiratory issues.

To manage sesame intolerance or allergy, avoid sesame in all forms and read labels carefully. Inform restaurant staff of your allergy, carry safe snacks, and if necessary, keep antihistamines or an epinephrine auto-injector handy. Cooking at home reduces the risk of exposure, and wearing medical alert jewelry can help in emergencies.

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.
