  • Bloating
  • Abdominal pain
  • Diarrhea

When should I consider getting an octopus intolerance test?

If you consistently experience digestive discomfort or symptoms after consuming octopus and suspect intolerance, consider discussing your symptoms with a healthcare provider. They can help determine whether testing for octopus intolerance or other gastrointestinal conditions is necessary.

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

Managing octopus intolerance involves avoiding octopus and related seafood products. Be vigilant about reading food labels and checking restaurant menus for dishes containing octopus. Consult with a healthcare provider or dietitian to ensure you maintain a balanced diet while avoiding octopus.

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 USA. 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.
