Wheat

This test measures the amount of specific antibodies in your blood that react to wheat proteins. It helps show if your immune system is overreacting to wheat, which is useful for investigating symptoms like hives, breathing difficulties, or digestive issues after meals. This information helps rule out whether wheat is the specific cause of an allergic reaction. However, this test does not diagnose Celiac disease or gluten intolerance, which are different conditions that do not involve these specific allergy antibodies.
