Food allergies and food sensitivities are abnormal responses to a food component triggered by the immune system in the form of immunoglobulins (IgE, IgG, IgA, IgM), representing either an immediate or delayed response.

Overview

Abnormal reaction to foods we eat are quite common, and clinical presentations range from chronic, mild reactions to serious conditions such as celiac disease. Abnormal food reactions can cause many different types of symptoms such as gas, bloating, migraines, unexplained fatigue, recurrent infections or respiratory or dermatological symptoms. The challenge is to clearly define which foods may be causing a problem in each individual. 

184 Comprehensive IgG Food Panels aid in the identification of delayed reactions to food. Symptoms may occur up to 72 hours after ingestion making it difficult to pinpoint the offending food. Removal of positive foods can reduce inflammation, decrease the overall load on the immune system and promote healing in the gut. 184 IgG ELISA food panel is arranged in a comprehensive panel of 184 foods, many of the substitute foods typically found in rotation/elimination diets
