If you suffer from stiff or painful joints, and have not yet discovered a cause then it is possible that you could be one of the estimated 9 million(1) adults in the UK with a food intolerance.
These food sensitivities can be very difficult to pinpoint – often a trial and error elimination diet alone can take months before trigger foods are identified. Take control and Turbo-Charge your investigations with an IgG Antibody Food Intolerance Test from Smartblood Laboratories.

View Lee’s video story to see how a Smartblood food intolerance test helped him identify his trigger foods, one of which was Caffeine, and how a consultation with a Smartblood Nutritional Therapist helped him identify foods that contained Caffeine and showed him suitable replacements.
Smartblood Testing is definitely something that I would recommend. - Lee
