vegetable allergy panel

This test detects IgE antibodies against black-eye pea allergens, indicating a potential food allergy. Black-eye peas are legumes, and people with pea allergies may experience oral itching, swelling, or gastrointestinal symptoms after consumption. Food allergies can range from mild to severe, and in some cases may trigger anaphylaxis. Detection helps you identify foods to avoid and guides conversations with healthcare providers about safe alternatives and emergency preparedness.

This test detects IgE antibodies specific to spinach allergen. Though less common than other food allergies, some individuals develop allergic reactions to spinach, particularly those with oral allergy syndrome or pollen allergies. A positive result indicates allergic sensitization to spinach, which may cause itching or swelling of the mouth and throat, or more rarely, systemic allergic reactions. This test helps identify food allergens affecting your diet.

This test detects IgE antibodies against onion in your blood, indicating a potential allergic reaction to this common vegetable. Onion allergies are uncommon but can cause oral itching, throat swelling, or digestive symptoms. People with birch pollen allergies may experience cross-reactivity with raw onion proteins, while cooking often breaks down these proteins, making cooked onions safer. A positive result helps you understand your reaction triggers and guides your food choices and meal preparation.

This test quantitatively measures IgE antibodies against sweet potato in your blood, providing a numerical level of allergic sensitivity. Sweet potato allergies are relatively uncommon but can cause oral itching, throat swelling, or digestive symptoms. Some people with birch or other pollen allergies may cross-react with sweet potato proteins. Cooking may reduce allergenicity for some individuals. A positive result confirms sweet potato allergy, with higher levels suggesting greater sensitivity, and guides your dietary choices.

This test detects IgE antibodies to celery (Apium graveolens), indicating an allergic response. A positive result suggests a potential IgE-mediated celery allergy, which could trigger symptoms from mild oral itching to severe reactions. Celery allergies are more common in Europe and may involve cross-reactivity with birch pollen and related vegetables. This test helps confirm celery allergies and guides dietary avoidance, important since celery is used in many foods, seasonings, and broths.

This test detects IgE antibodies against pear proteins in your blood, indicating an allergic response to pears. IgE antibodies trigger immediate allergic reactions when you encounter the allergen. A positive result suggests you may experience symptoms like itching, swelling, or hives when eating fresh pears. Pear allergies often occur in people with birch pollen allergies due to protein similarities (oral allergy syndrome). Symptoms are typically mild and localized to the mouth, though severe reactions are rare. Testing helps confirm suspected pear allergies and guides dietary decisions.

This test detects IgE antibodies against tomato proteins in your blood. A positive result suggests your immune system reacts to tomatoes, potentially causing allergic symptoms. Tomato allergies are often associated with birch pollen allergy (oral allergy syndrome), where raw tomatoes trigger itching or swelling of the mouth and lips. Cooked tomatoes are usually tolerated better. This test helps distinguish true tomato allergy from pollen-related reactions and guides dietary choices.

This test detects IgE antibodies against peach (Prunus persica) proteins in your blood. A positive result suggests your immune system reacts to peaches. Peach allergies often occur as part of oral allergy syndrome, particularly in people with birch or grass pollen allergies, causing itching or swelling of the mouth when eating raw peaches. Cooking usually eliminates the reaction. This test distinguishes true peach allergy from pollen-related cross-reactivity and guides fruit consumption choices.

This test detects IgE antibodies against garlic in your blood, indicating a potential allergy to this common culinary ingredient. If positive, your immune system reacts to garlic compounds, which may cause allergic symptoms ranging from mouth itching to gastrointestinal upset or skin reactions. A garlic allergy is relatively uncommon but can significantly impact your ability to enjoy many cuisines. This test helps confirm suspected garlic sensitivity and guides dietary and cooking choices.

This test detects IgE antibodies to pea (Pisum sativum), indicating allergic sensitivity to peas. Pea allergy is relatively uncommon but can cause oral allergy syndrome, itching, swelling, or in severe cases, systemic reactions. People with pea allergy may also react to related legumes like lentils and beans due to cross-reactivity. A positive result guides dietary avoidance and helps identify potential hidden sources in processed foods.

Carrot IgE antibodies indicate a potential allergic reaction to raw carrot protein. An IgE antibody test detects whether your immune system has become sensitized to carrot allergens. Elevated IgE suggests a true food allergy, commonly causing oral allergy syndrome with itching or swelling of the lips, mouth, and throat, particularly with raw carrots. This may be related to birch pollen allergy and typically resolves with cooking.

Potato IgE antibodies indicate a potential allergic reaction to potato protein. An IgE antibody test detects whether your immune system has become sensitized to potato allergens. Elevated IgE suggests a true food allergy, which can cause oral itching, swelling, hives, gastrointestinal upset, or rarely anaphylaxis. Potato allergy is uncommon but serious when present, requiring careful dietary avoidance of raw and cooked potatoes.
