Allergen Profile Food Blood Test

* This is not a home test kit. You will need to visit a local lab for testing.

The Purpose of a Food Allergy Profile Blood Test

In recent years, there’s been a growing awareness of food allergies in a wide array of categories, from dairy to fish. With these kinds of allergies, your immune system mistakenly thinks a specific food (or foods, in some cases) is an invader, like a germ. In response, the immune system produces immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies. Mild attacks can lead to symptoms like a rash, stomach pain, or vomiting. More serious attacks, however, can have dangerous repercussions, leading up to anaphylactic shock, which can be life-threatening. A food allergy panel blood test can give you critical information on what foods are safe—and what foods you may need to avoid.

Who Should Take an Allergy Food Profile Test?

You should consider taking a food panel allergy test if you:

  • Have a family history of food allergies

  • Have ever had an anaphylactic reaction after eating certain foods. This can include dizziness, a high heart rate, or difficulty breathing.

There are no special instructions you need to follow before the food allergy profile blood test.

Food Allergy Panel Blood Test Results

Generally, elevated levels of IgE antibodies indicate a possible allergic reaction, but results vary by lab and the food that’s being tested. If you need medical guidance on how to live with food allergies, talk with a Personalabs board-certified doctor during a telehealth appointment.
