HI Dave,
My test was a little over a $1000 but I had to most comprehensive Alcat offers.
They offer smaller ones.
I knew I was very reactive to food chemicals mainly preservatives, but then I
started to suspect wheat and dairy. Sure enough I have severe reactions to both
as well as many others. Getting the ALCAT test done is the best thing I have
ever done for myself!!! I have truly never felt better in my life!
It took me a while to decide to do it. I was not sure if it was a scam or not.
Finally a dear friend also recommended I try it. I trust her so I went for it.
Believe it or not, I know it was money well spent.
I believe some insurances cover, but I don't know. I paid for mine in 3 payments
to make it a little less painful.
Hope that helps, Cinda
