Understand food sensitivities, symptoms, + IgG testing. Learn how to read results + take clear next steps to feel better, without guesswork.
About this Event

Are you struggling with bloating, brain fog, low energy, skin issues, digestive discomfort, or mystery symptoms?

Maybe you're wondering if foods like gluten, dairy, eggs, or soy could be the cause?

This educational Food Sensitivity Workshop is designed to help you finally understand why your body may be reacting the way it is—and what to do about it.

Led by Dr. Mary Jo MacKinnon, FNP-BC, ND, this workshop will walk you through:

  • Common food sensitivity symptoms and how they differ from allergies and intolerances
  • How food sensitivities can impact energy, focus, digestion, inflammation, mood, and overall wellness
  • What IgG food antibody testing is and how it works
  • How to read and understand your at-home IgG Food Antibody test results
  • The next steps and lifestyle changes to support healing and feel better—without guesswork or extremes

Mary Jo will order each attendee an at-home IgG Food Antibody Test Kit and will share clear educational guidance on how to interpret results and take appropriate, supportive action.


Important Cost Note

The cost of the lab kit is NOT included in the workshop price. The IgG Food Antibody Test Kit is an additional cost of approximately $135, payable separately.

This workshop is ideal for anyone who:

  • Feels bloated, inflamed, foggy, or fatigued without clear answers
  • Suspects food sensitivities but doesn’t know where to start
  • Wants practical education, not restrictive diet trends
  • Is ready to better understand their body and make informed food choices

You’ll leave feeling empowered, informed, and supported, with real tools to improve how you feel day-to-day.
