The 25 Basic IgE Combo Panel tests the allergic immune response (IgE) to 25 of the most commonly allergenic foods. Allergic (IgE), or immediate reaction, occurs within minutes to hours after the exposure.
Food allergies affect about 4% of the adult population and about 5% of children. Children may outgrow some of their food allergies before they reach adulthood. Allergic reactions may be mild, such as a runny nose, to life-threatening anaphylaxis.
The root cause of a variety of health problems often stems from the foods we are consuming every day. These can also include foods that are considered healthy. Identifying these foods is a key step to symptom improvement.
Order IgE in cases of immediate immune reactions.
No fasting or need to come off most medications or supplements.
