What is a Food Allergy?
Food allergies happen when the immune system reacts to a substance, which is usually in food. Typically, the immune system goes into gear when it detects a harmful substance. It does that by making antibodies. When someone has a food allergy, their immune system identifies a specific protein as harmful & makes antibodies to fight it off. These results cause allergy in various symptoms, including skin rashes and breathing problems.

Diagnosis of Food Allergy?
The IgE Food Antibody Assessment is a blood test that measures IgE antibodies to 19 of the most allergenic foods. A food allergy will be diagnosed by skin pricks and blood tests that measure a protein called immunoglobulin E, or IgE, are used to diagnose. The presence of IgE antibodies generally indicates an immune system response.
When should testing for IgE Food Antibodies be considered?
Testing for IgE food antibodies is useful for individuals who suspect that food is responsible for causing their symptoms. The presence of circulating antibodies may affect each patient differently, a positive allergy test result (skin or blood) indicates only the presence of allergen-specific IgE (called sensitization). It does not necessarily mean clinical allergy (i.e., allergic symptoms with exposure). The family history of allergic diseases was the strongest predictor of food allergy in patients.
What happens during an Allergy Blood Test?
A health care professional will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm, using a small needle. After the needle is inserted, a small amount of blood will be collected into a test tube or vial. You may feel a little sting when the needle goes in or out. This usually takes less than five minutes.
