People who are allergic to proteins in specific foods develop IgE (immunoglobulin E) antibodies to those food proteins. IgE is a protective blood protein produced when your body identifies a substance as a threat. Therefore, detectable levels of IgE may indicate the presence of an allergy. If you suspect a food allergy, share your test results with your healthcare provider or allergist. They will review your family and medical history to determine if a food allergy exists.
