What is king crab intolerance and how does it differ from king crab allergies?

King crab intolerance refers to the body’s difficulty in digesting king crab, leading to gastrointestinal issues. This differs from a king crab allergy, which is an immune response against proteins in the crab, potentially causing serious allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. Intolerance is primarily a digestive issue, while allergies can have more widespread and severe symptoms.

What are the common symptoms of king crab intolerance?
  • Bloating
  • Gas
  • Stomach cramps
  • Diarrhea
  • Nausea
When should I consider getting a king crab intolerance test?

If consuming king crab regularly leads to digestive problems like bloating, gas, or diarrhea, it might be worth considering a test for king crab intolerance. Persistent digestive symptoms after eating king crab are indicative of a possible intolerance. Consulting a healthcare provider can help determine if these symptoms are due to intolerance or another underlying issue.

How can I manage and cope with king crab intolerance in my daily life?

Managing king crab intolerance involves avoiding king crab in your diet. Careful attention to food labels and menus is important, as king crab can be present in various seafood dishes and preparations. Exploring alternative seafood options that don’t cause symptoms is a good way to maintain a diverse and enjoyable diet. Additionally, speaking with a dietitian can provide guidance on making dietary adjustments while ensuring nutritional needs are met.

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.
