Now let’s understand them.
Your Pet Intolerance Test provides insight into how your pet’s body responds to food and environmental triggers. Here’s how to interpret your results and take the next steps.
These results are NOT a life sentence. The Pet Intolerance Test uses biofeedback to detect stressors and sensitivities, not true allergies. True born allergies are far more rare in pets.
Over time, a pet’s ability to tolerate certain things can change. Some pets handle items well when they’re young and become more sensitive later, while others may improve with time.
Repeated exposure also plays a role. When the body is exposed to the same foods over and over, it can begin to build an intolerance. This is why rotating proteins, formulas, and even manufacturers can be so beneficial.
Environmental stressors shift as well. As seasons change, so can your pet’s responses. These results are simply a snapshot of what your pet’s body is responding to right now.
A Simple Way to Move Forward
Rather than trying to change everything at once, think of this as a short reset period. The goal is to reduce stress on the body, allow it to rebalance, and then carefully reintroduce items over time.
Reduce
Temporarily remove the highest stressor items to give the body a break.
Stabilize
Give your pet time to settle into a more balanced state.
Reintroduce
If your pet is stable, you can slowly test items again and observe how they respond.
Understand The Different Panels
The goal is to help the body return to a relaxed state physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Instead of trying to fix everything at once, focus on progress.
Begin by removing items in red and yellow for about 60 days. This is a general window where many pets begin to show improvement, though every pet is different.
If removing everything feels overwhelming, prioritize the most common trigger groups:
Protein Sources
Includes poultry, fish, and animal proteins
Root Vegetables
Carrots, sweet potatoes, parsnips, etc.
Oils
Common in processed foods
Grains
Often difficult for carnivores to digest
After your pet stabilizes, you can reintroduce items one at a time. Watch closely for signs like digestive upset, skin irritation, or discomfort.
Focus on household and outdoor products that may contain petro or environmental chemicals. Check labels and remove what you can.
If items like wool or down are flagged, temporarily remove them from your pet’s environment for 60 days.
Grasses, trees, pollens, weeds, and flowers cannot be removed.
Instead, the focus shifts to supporting the immune system so your pet can better tolerate these exposures.
These categories reflect areas where the body may be experiencing stress, not diagnoses.
Imbalances can occur due to a domino effect, life stage, or natural predisposition.
We are not saying your pet has a thyroid issue, virus, or parasite. These are simply areas that may benefit from support.
If your pet is showing symptoms, consult your veterinarian. (Here’s our recommended holistic vets list!) Otherwise, these are supportive insights.
Everything Starts In The Gut
When the gut is supported properly, it creates a stronger foundation for overall health. This is why changes to diet and digestion can have such a significant impact on how your pet feels.

Why Digestive Support Matters
Carnivores often produce lower amounts of the enzymes needed to break down certain foods, including starches and complex carbohydrates. When food is not fully broken down, it can sit in the gut undigested.
This can lead to an imbalance of bacteria and may contribute to issues like digestive upset, skin irritation, yeast, and other concerns.
Digestive enzymes help ensure food is properly broken down so it can be absorbed and utilized, rather than creating additional stress in the body.
Carnivores often lack the proper enzymes to fully break down certain foods, especially starches.
When food is not properly broken down, it can sit in the gut undigested. This may contribute to imbalances in gut bacteria and can lead to issues like digestive upset, skin irritation, or yeast.
Digestive enzymes help break food down more efficiently so nutrients can be absorbed and the body is not under additional stress.
Pre and probiotics help introduce and maintain beneficial bacteria in the gut. This good bacteria plays an important role in supporting digestion, immune function, and overall balance.
When the balance of beneficial bacteria is disrupted, pets may experience digestive upset, stool changes, or changes in skin and coat health.
Pre and probiotics help maintain a healthy digestive environment so nutrients can be properly utilized and the body can better respond to everyday food and environmental stressors.
Wellness is not a one-time fix, it’s an ongoing process.
