* https://www.allergy.org.au/patients/allergy-testing/unorthodox-testing-and-treatment Unorthodox testing and treatment for allergic disorders.<br>Vega (electro-diagnostic) testing (Evidence Level II: inaccurate test)<br>Vega testing claims to detect disease by measuring changes in body electrical currents using a "Vega machine". The patient holds one (negative) electrode in one hand, and the positive electrode is applied to acupuncture points over fingers or toes. An allergen (such as food extract) in a sealed glass container is brought into the electrical circuit. An alteration in current is interpreted as meaning the person is "sensitive" to that substance. Formal examination of this technique shows that practitioners are unable to distinguish between healthy and allergic individuals, and between responses using allergens as well as "dummy" control solutions. Results also don't correlate with those obtained using conventional allergy testing.
