Q&A
Testing FAQ
What does a delayed food allergy test measure?
VEI Clinic runs the food IgG antibody test, often called a delayed allergy test, from a blood sample. It measures IgG antibody levels to many foods and serves as a reference when you sort out how meals relate to your symptoms.
Despite the name, it does not diagnose allergies or food intolerance, so we do not cut foods based on the results alone. An internal medicine specialist interprets them together with your symptom log.
What functional medicine tests are there?
VEI Clinic runs functional medicine tests on blood and urine samples: the delayed food allergy test, the urine organic acid test, the oxidative stress and antioxidant capacity test, the NK cell activity test and a cancer risk screening test. We choose only the tests that fit your symptoms and goals.
The medical director, Dr. HyunSung Park, is an internal medicine specialist and a full member of the Korean Institute of Functional Medicine. He explains the results and plans the next steps with you, whether IV therapy or everyday care.
Can a test tell whether belly fat is visceral or subcutaneous?
The shape of the belly alone cannot tell how much visceral fat there is. At VEI Clinic the exam checks the thickness of pinchable subcutaneous fat alongside the visceral fat estimate from a body composition test, and because that figure is only an estimate it is read together with the exam findings.
If the fat is mostly thick, pinchable subcutaneous fat, an abdominal fat-dissolving injection can be discussed; if it is mainly visceral fat, we recommend diet, exercise and obesity care before injections. The injection goes into subcutaneous fat and does not reach visceral fat.
