About the IgE Food Allergy Test - Mumbai

Allergies occur when your immune system reacts to certain foreign substances like dust, pollen, or smoke that don’t cause a reaction in most people. Food allergy antibodies can emerge in our body when consuming allergens that may be present in our meals. An IgE test can detect our allergic reaction to certain foods, giving us a complete food allergy profile.  

When you’re exposed to the allergen, the antibodies release a number of chemicals, such as histamine, that can inflame your skin, sinuses, airways, or digestive system. A food allergy test in Mumbai through MyDiagnostics can help provide detailed information on the severity and types of allergic reactions we can experience. Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian foods are tested for understanding how our body reacts to a range of allergens. 

A report is also generated within 3-5 days, containing necessary information about severe and mild allergic reactions. Triggering foods are highlighted, such as meat, fish, dairy, and nuts, giving us more control over what we should eat and what to avoid. The food allergy Mumbai package is a home-test kit with all instructions presented on how to provide a blood sample. 

What is the cause of food allergies in the body?

A food allergy is caused when your immune system gets triggered because of proteins present within certain foods. A number of chemicals are released which can be a sign of an allergic reaction. You can experience short term signs as well as long-term ailments as a result of exposure to triggering foods. Some of the most common allergens include peanuts, soy, fish, dairy, shellfish, etc. When experiencing these symptoms, it is best to get an IgE food allergy test in Mumbai immediately.

    Symptoms of Food Allergy

    Common food allergy signs and symptoms include:

      • Tingling or itching in the mouth
      • Itching skin or eczema
      • Swelling of the lips, face, tongue and throat or other parts of the body
      • Wheezing, nasal congestion, trouble breathing or asthma like symptoms
      • Abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea or vomiting
      • Dizziness, lightheadedness

    Food Allergies testing process

    Food allergies (veg or non veg) are diagnosed with the help of a blood test where a blood sample is sent to a laboratory for analysis. The laboratory checks the blood for IgE antibodies to specific foods and allergens like dust, pollen etc. 

    If enough Immunoglobulin E antibodies to a particular food or allergen are in the blood, it's very likely that the person is allergic to it. A food allergy test in Mumbai can provide the right insights on what foods to avoid and what to focus on. E.g., you may be allergic to goat’s milk but not to buffalo milk, which can be detected through food allergy testing. 

    Meaning of unclear food allergy test reports

    If the food allergy test results of these comprehensive blood tests are unclear, an allergist might do a test called the food challenge. During this test, the person is given gradually increasing amounts of the potential food allergen to eat while the doctor watches for symptoms.
