Food Allergy Panel blood test

The Food Allergy Panel is a comprehensive IgE-based screening tool that identifies sensitisation to multiple common food allergens in a single test. Proactive testing helps build a clear picture of your immune reactivity.

Doctor's Assessment Included

Food Allergy Panel: what this test measures

This panel measures specific IgE antibodies against multiple food allergens in a single blood draw. Foods tested typically include common allergens such as milk, egg, wheat, soy, peanut, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish.

Food Allergy Panel: why this value matters

Identifying food allergies helps prevent potentially serious allergic reactions and guides dietary management. Early identification of food sensitisation is important for safety planning, especially for allergens that can cause severe reactions.

Food Allergy Panel: when is testing worthwhile?

Consider this panel if you experience symptoms such as hives, swelling, digestive upset, or breathing difficulties after eating certain foods, or if you have a personal or family history of allergic conditions. Consult your healthcare provider for guidance.

Food Allergy Panel: lifestyle and this value

If food allergies are confirmed, strict avoidance of identified allergens is the primary strategy. Always read food labels, inform restaurants of your allergies, and carry prescribed emergency medication (such as an adrenaline auto-injector) if indicated by your healthcare provider.

Food Allergy Panel: frequently asked questions

Does a positive IgE result mean I am allergic?
Not necessarily. A positive IgE result shows sensitisation — your immune system has produced antibodies against that food. However, not everyone with sensitisation experiences symptoms. Clinical correlation is needed.
What is the difference between food allergy and food intolerance?
Food allergy involves the immune system (IgE-mediated) and can cause rapid, sometimes severe reactions. Food intolerance (e.g. lactose intolerance) does not involve IgE antibodies and typically causes digestive symptoms only.
Can food allergies develop in adulthood?
Yes. While many food allergies begin in childhood, new food allergies can develop at any age, including in adulthood. Shellfish and tree nut allergies are particularly common adult-onset allergies.
