- Egg yolk
- Peanut
- Shrimp
- Soy
- Tuna
- Wheat
Food Allergy Test
Food Sensitivity Test
Celiac Disease Screening Test
Measures
IgE reactivity to common food allergens
Current levels of IgG antibodies for a variety of foods
Presence or absence of antibodies that can indicate celiac disease
Intended use
To identify antibody responses to specific foods that might be connected to a food allergy
To identify foods in your current diet that might be connected to food sensitivity symptoms
To identify if you have an immune response to gluten, that might be connected to celiac disease

Is the Food Allergy Test right for you?
This test may be right for you if you:
- Have experienced mild symptoms but haven’t been diagnosed with a food allergy, which may include:
- Tingling or itching of your face, lips, mouth, tongue, or throat
- Itchy or watery eyes
- Hives or skin rash, or itchy skin
- Runny nose, sneezing, congestion
- Stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation, or diarrhea
- Have a parent or sibling who has a known allergic condition
Testing alone cannot be used to diagnose a food allergy. Your healthcare provider will use your test results, in combination with your symptoms, medical history, family history, and physical exam, to determine the likelihood of a food allergy and the right next steps for evaluation and treatment.
This test may not be right for you if you have ever had a severe allergic reaction to the food allergens in this panel, or if you are trying to determine whether you still have a known food allergy. This test should not be used in any type of food trial without the supervision of a healthcare provider.
Concerned your symptoms may be related to a food allergy?
Some people with food allergies may only have mild symptoms. However, others may have a more severe reaction*.
*This test is not intended to be taken by anyone who has previously had a severe reaction to the foods on this panel. If you’re having any serious symptoms, please seek medical attention right away.
Mild symptoms may include:
- Tingling or itching of your face, lips, mouth, tongue, or throat
