YorkTest Laboratories Services Now Available on the Boots Health Hub

York, Thursday 11th January, 2024. YorkTest Laboratories services are now available to more patients via the Boots Health Hub.

The move will enable Boots Health Hub to direct customers looking for food intolerance, allergy or other health tests, such as Liver Function, Cholesterol, Vitamin D and Hormone tests, directly to the YorkTest website where they can begin their journey to improved health and wellbeing.

“Over the past five years, YorkTest has experienced growing demand for its Food Intolerance and Allergy testing, as consumers become more aware of various symptoms, such as IBS, bloating, tiredness and skin issues, potentially being caused by food intolerances. YorkTest provides expert Nutritional Therapist advice to customers taking a food intolerance test to help them with their nutrition, health and wellbeing. We are delighted to be able to provide these tests, which are often lifechanging for people with a variety of symptoms, to the Boots Health Hub community,” said Richard Dawson, CEO of YorkTest Laboratories.

“YorkTest are pioneers in food-specific IgG antibody testing, having developed our food intolerance testing processes in collaboration with the University of York in 1998. More recently we have added a number of blood chemistry tests, including Male and Female Hormones, Thyroid, Liver Function and Cholesterol Tests. Working with Boots provides us the opportunity to offer our valuable testing services to even more people.”, added Dr Gill Hart, Scientific Director of YorkTest Laboratories.
