Comprehensive 70 Allergen Food Allergy Test (IgE): At-Home Blood Test & Price
Test Parameters
This comprehensive IgE food allergy blood test helps identify immediate allergic reactions to 70 commonly consumed foods, highlighting the wide range of allergens tested, including various food categories. Using a clinically validated IgE panel, we detect immune responses linked to symptoms like itching, hives, swelling, or digestive distress, as well as other allergic symptoms. This panel offers one of the broadest food allergen coverages available, helping identify clinically relevant allergic sensitivities.
What Is a Food Allergy Blood Test (IgE)?
A Food Allergy Blood Test (IgE) and Food Allergy panel is a medical test which examines certain substances causing allergic reactions in your body. This test detects Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies, which your immune system produces in response to allergens. The test is performed using a blood sample drawn from a vein, allowing laboratory analysis to detect IgE antibodies in the blood.
While IgE antibodies are also involved in environmental allergies such as dust mites or animal dander, this panel specifically focuses on food-based allergens only. The immune system's production of IgE antibodies is part of the body's response to allergens, and the test measures this response to help diagnose food allergies.
This test identifies specific food allergens by measuring IgE antibodies in the blood, without exposing the patient directly to allergens. It is one of several diagnostic tests used to identify food allergies and is particularly effective for identifying specific allergens responsible for allergic reactions.
The Science Behind IgE
The 70 Allergen IgE Food Allergy Blood Test identifies an individual's allergic reactions to commonly consumed foods. It detects immune responses linked to symptoms such as itching, hives, swelling, breathing difficulty, or digestive distress.
The test provides a complete allergy profile with at-home sample collection, NABL-certified lab processing, and expert-reviewed reports.
Allergy vs. Intolerance: Know the Difference
Food intolerances, such as lactose intolerance and gluten sensitivity, are considered digestive or metabolic issues. These typically cause delayed symptoms like bloating or fatigue.
In contrast, food sensitivities usually involve less severe, non-immune reactions that mainly affect digestion. Mild discomfort and itchy skin are among the initial symptoms of food allergies. The table below will help you distinguish the differences properly.
Food Allergy vs Food Intolerance / Sensitivity – Key Differences
|
Feature |
Food Allergy (IgE-Mediated) |
Food Intolerance / Sensitivity (Non-IgE Mediated) |
|---|---|---|
|
Underlying Mechanism |
Immune system reaction involving IgE antibodies; immune system reacts to specific food proteins |
Digestive, metabolic, or non-IgE immune responses |
|
Reaction Time |
Immediate (minutes to 2 hours) |
Delayed (2–72 hours) |
|
Severity |
Can be severe or life-threatening (anaphylaxis) |
Chronic, low-grade, rarely life-threatening |
|
Common Symptoms |
Hives, swelling, wheezing, throat tightness, anaphylaxis, itchy skin, mild discomfort |
Bloating, gas, IBS-like symptoms, headaches, fatigue, acne |
|
Immune Involvement |
Yes – IgE antibodies |
No IgE involvement |
|
Primary Diagnostic Methods |
IgE blood test, skin prick tests, supervised oral food challenge |
Elimination diet, breath tests (e.g., lactose intolerance), clinical assessment |
|
Role of IgG Testing |
Not applicable |
May be used for dietary guidance, not diagnostic confirmation |
|
Clinical Acceptance |
Widely accepted and guideline-supported |
Diagnosis based on symptom correlation rather than biomarkers |
|
Use Case |
Emergency risk assessment and allergy confirmation |
Long-term symptom management and dietary planning |

Individualized counselling implies that the allergic reactions are managed effectively. It reduces unnecessary medication and processes and drags you to improved future health. Being aware of your own allergy profile will not only allow you to make better choices but reduce the frequency and severity of reaction of your body, living a more comfortable and healthier life.
