Question from Chi. “Hi Chris. I understand how in-range normal and out-of-range antibody production values are determined, but I don’t understand how equivocal status is determined for specific foods. My study partner and I are new at Cyrex testing. We’re finding it hard to work out when making certain antibody production value equivocal for a specific food rather than normal in range.”
Chris: I think that’s somewhat arbitrary, that equivocal range, but if you talk to Dr. Vojdani, which I have as you know, he will tell you that they consider anything that is equivocal to be positive. I don’t trust such a hard line there. I kind of look at the whole context. If I see many equivocal markers and no absolutely out of range markers, I am still like more likely to consider that as a positive because I’m seeing significant levels of immune interactivity. But if I see the entire test as normal, and one is just barely in the equivocal range above normal, then I probably will not consider that to be abnormal.
