Welcome to the board,

Thank you for the information. Unfortunately, there are no reliable tests for food sensitivities. This is may be why your friends had different results; you might expect a little bit of commonality. There are test for food allergies. The only reliable approach to determine food sensitivities is to use an elimination diet. Or follow a diet like Heather's diet and/or the clinically tested FODMAP diet discussed in the first two links in my signature.

You might read the excellent article on the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America web site titled The Specific Carbohydrate Diet: Does It Work?


Good luck
