Food Intolerance and Food Sensitivity – Which One Do You Have?
Understanding what the difference is between a food intolerance and food sensitivity can be really confusing especially when you just begin to learn about food allergies.
I find that food intolerance and food sensitivity can often be used interchangeably like they are considered the same condition where in fact they are very different.
It is important to find out whether you have an intolerance or a sensitivity so that a more specific treatment can be made to help you feel much better!
In this video I explain what the differences are, what symptoms you can expect from having a food intolerance and food sensitivity and some extra tips on what foods are linked with specific symptoms.
I have written more information in another article, Common Food Allergy Symptoms if you would like further information on the differences between a true food allergy as well.
If there is anything that i didn’t cover and is bothering you please feel free to ask in the comment box below and i’ll get back to you!

What a great explanation of the difference between the two! As the mom of a food allergic son who also has intolerances to many man-made food substances (MSG, additives, colorings etc) we have seen his skin pay the price with severe eczema when he eats these things. We avoid all of his actual allergens but now that he has been taking Belly Boost children’s chewable probiotics, his eczema has been mostly gone for over a year now! We are so happy to have found something that has helped him so much and now he can process and digest so many more of the foods that he once could not handle! Great info
