WHY IT MATTERS

That “Normal” Bloat May Not Be Normal

Always feeling bloated, tired, or breaking out — even when you’re trying to eat healthy?

Delayed food sensitivities can show up hours or days after you eat, so the foods causing the problem never look guilty. Standard allergy tests often come back “normal,” and you’re left guessing.

Common red flags that often trace back to hidden food triggers:

  • Bloating or stomach discomfort after everyday meals
  • Afternoon crashes, brain fog, or low energy
  • Skin issues like breakouts or redness that never fully clear

Pinnertest maps your personal IgG reactions to 120–250 foods so you can finally see which foods your body is fighting — and what to remove to start feeling better.

My results are back! With Hashimoto’s and fibromyalgia, knowing which foods my body doesn’t tolerate has been super helpful — even if I’m bummed sweet potatoes are on the list.

How Pinnertest works – at-home sample and lab analysis

HOW PINNERTEST WORKS

From a few drops at home to clear answers from the lab

1. Order Your Pinnertest Kit – Your kit is shipped directly to your address and includes everything you need: finger-prick lancets, collection card, instructions, and a prepaid return envelope.

2. Collect & Return Your Sample – At home, place a few drops of blood on the collection card following the step-by-step instructions. Let it dry, then mail it back to our laboratory using the prepaid envelope.

3. Lab Analysis Using Microarray IgG Technology – In our CLIA-certified lab, your dried blood sample is analyzed against a broad panel of foods using modern microarray technology to measure your IgG reactivity.

4. Receive Your Personalized Results – Once analysis is complete, you receive a clear food sensitivity report with reactivity levels, food groupings, and practical guidance to help you adjust your diet.

Pinnertest Microarray Technology

PINNERTEST TECHNOLOGY

Advanced Microarray Scanning in a CLIA-Certified Laboratory

Pinnertest analyzes your sample using high-resolution microarray IgG scanning — the same laboratory technology used by leading medical research institutions. Every step takes place inside our CLIA-certified lab for accuracy and consistency.

Microarray IgG Scanning

Your dried blood sample is placed on a precision microarray plate containing food antigens. Automated scanners detect your IgG antibody reactions with exceptional sensitivity.

CLIA-Certified Laboratory

All testing is performed in a U.S. CLIA-certified laboratory, following strict quality-control standards used in clinical diagnostics.

Reliable, Reproducible Results

Each sample passes through an automated verification process, ensuring consistent signal detection and reproducibility so you can trust your results.

QUESTIONS ABOUT PINNERTEST

Frequently Asked Questions

A quick overview of what Pinnertest can and cannot do, how the sample works, and how most people use their results with a practitioner.

What exactly is Pinnertest?

Pinnertest is an at-home IgG food sensitivity test. You collect a small finger-prick blood sample on a card and mail it to our CLIA-certified laboratory. The lab uses microarray technology to measure IgG antibodies to a wide panel of foods and provides a structured report you can review with your practitioner.

Is Pinnertest a food allergy test?

No. Pinnertest does not diagnose IgE-mediated food allergy or any medical condition. Food allergy is usually fast, can be dangerous and belongs under the care of an allergist or other qualified physician. Pinnertest looks at delayed IgG food sensitivity only and is intended as a supportive wellness tool.

Who is Pinnertest typically for?

Many people use Pinnertest when they’re exploring non-emergency symptoms that might be food-related – such as bloating, digestive discomfort, headaches, skin changes, low energy or “brain fog.” It’s best used together with a practitioner, nutritionist or dietitian who can help you interpret the report and plan safe changes.

How is the sample collected and shipped?

The kit includes lancets, a collection card and detailed instructions. You place a few drops of blood on the card, let it dry and return it in the prepaid envelope. The dried format is stable for shipping and allows the lab to process your sample using our microarray workflow.

How long does it take to get results?

Once your dried sample reaches the laboratory, most people receive their results in about 7–10 days, depending on shipping times and current lab volume. You’ll get a structured report, and for some panels, additional online tools such as portal access.

How should I actually use the report?

It’s very simple. The report shows which foods you should remove from your diet. That’s the main action you need to take. If any of the foods you remove are important for general health (for example: milk), just replace them with other foods that provide the same nutrients (like calcium). Other than that, there’s nothing complicated to manage.

Can I diagnose myself or change medication based on the test?

No. Pinnertest is an exploratory wellness tool, not a diagnostic test. It should not be used to diagnose a condition or to make medical decisions. Never start, stop, or change medication only because of a lab report. Always discuss your results and any major diet or treatment changes with your doctor or other qualified healthcare provider.

Food Sensitivity vs. Food Allergy

Knowing the difference helps you understand whether your symptoms may be related to delayed food reactions or whether an immediate allergic response requires medical care.

Food sensitivities (intolerances) occur when the body has trouble processing certain foods. These responses are typically delayed by hours, which makes them difficult to identify without a structured testing or elimination approach.

A food allergy, on the other hand, involves an immediate immune reaction driven by IgE antibodies. These reactions can be fast, noticeable, and sometimes severe — requiring evaluation and guidance from a medical professional.

Sensitivity-related symptoms may include digestive discomfort, bloating, fatigue, headaches, skin issues, brain fog, or changes in mood and energy. Many people live with these symptoms for months or years without realizing that specific foods may be playing a role.

Pinnertest offers a practical starting point for exploring potential food-related triggers. While it is not a diagnostic allergy test, your IgG-based report can support a more structured elimination and reintroduction plan that you review with your practitioner.

More About How Pinnertest Works

What is Pinnertest and how does it work?

Pinnertest is a laboratory-performed IgG food sensitivity test that uses microarray technology to measure immune response to foods using a small dried blood sample.

The information helps support discussions with your practitioner when exploring non-emergency food-related symptoms such as migraines, stomach cramping, skin issues, or sugar and carb cravings.

Food Sensitivity vs. Food Allergy

Food Allergy

Fast, IgE-mediated reactions that may include hives, swelling, trouble breathing, or anaphylaxis. These require medical evaluation and care.

Food Sensitivity

Slower, delayed reactions. Symptoms appear hours or days later and may include bloating, digestive discomfort, skin changes, headaches, low energy, or “brain fog.”

Pinnertest measures IgG antibodies to foods including wheat, yeast, tomato, chocolate, egg, almond and more.

What do you receive with Pinnertest?
  • At-home finger-prick collection kit
  • Lab analysis of IgG responses to 120–250 foods
  • Structured report grouped by food categories
  • Digital results + online tools (Pinnertest 200 & 250)
How people use results

Many people use Pinnertest as a roadmap for a structured elimination trial. Foods with higher IgG reactivity may be reduced or removed temporarily and then reintroduced slowly while tracking symptoms.

For best results, work with a qualified practitioner, dietitian or nutritionist. Explore real-world stories on our Pinnertest Blog.

Important limitations
  • Not a diagnostic test
  • Does NOT assess IgE allergies
  • Does not replace medical evaluation or emergency care
  • Do not change medications based solely on test results
