This IgE allergy test panel uses a blood sample to determine if you are allergic to five common vegetable allergens, commonly used in salads: LettuceSpinachCucumberCeleryTomatoVegetable allergies are not as common as some other food groups, but as with any allergy, if left undetected, a vegetable allergy can significantly decrease your quality of life. In the case of vegetable allergies, the body sees the vegetables as a toxin, rather than a food. The immune system reacts by releasing histamines and antibodies to fight the toxin, causing symptoms such as swelling, rashes, throat swelling, gastrointestinal issues and more. Traditional allergy tests utilize the Skin Prick method (also known as a Puncture or Scratch test) to determine whether an allergic reaction will occur by inserting possible triggers into your skin using a needle prick. If you are allergic to the substance, you are forced to suffer through your body's reaction to the allergen.
