also known as Food Allergen Mix 20 (Barley+Rice+Rye+Wheat) IgE Ab in Serum by Multidisk
This IgE allergy test panel uses a blood sample to determine if you are allergic to five common Grain (Cereal) allergens: BarleyBuckwheatGlutenRiceRyeGrain allergies are among the most common food allergies. In the case of grain allergies, the body sees certain proteins that make up the grain as a toxin, rather than a food. Most allergic reactions to grains affect the gastrointestinal tract, where the gut reacts to gluten or gluten-like proteins by losing its ability to absorb nutrients, causing diarrhea, bloating, tiredness, abdominal discomfort, and vitamin and nutrient deficiencies. Did you know: Typically, grain allergies do not cause anaphylaxis or more fatal reactions (though it is not impossible). Symptoms often appear within minutes of contact with the grain, but can also be delayed up to 24-48 hours, especially if the grain is eaten regularly over several days. 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.
