The hospital explained that "the system performs an advanced analysis measuring the body's response to more than (50) food substances, helping detect food sensitivities or intolerance with high accuracy. It also enables physicians to establish a comprehensive scientific diagnosis and develop an appropriate dietary plan for each case based on precise and reliable results."
