Has anyone used an online company for a food intolerance test?

Hi, I'm looking for recommendations on a reputable company that can test intolerances . There are lots online but also loads of speculation about some being potential scams
Any advise welcome!

The only reason to do this is if you feel that your wallet is a bit heavy and you'd like it lightened. There are no tests that exist for food intolerance. There are tests for food allergy, which your GP can arrange if you have appropriate symptoms. Please don't waste your money on York tests etc. If you think food x give you symptom y then cut out food x for 3 months and see if symptom y goes away. If it does, reintroduce food x and see if symptom y comes back. Only if both steps are positive do you have an intolerance.
