# Tomato

> This test measures the level of IgE antibodies in your blood that specifically react to proteins found in tomatoes. It helps show whether your immune system views tomatoes as a threat, which is useful for evaluating symptoms like hives, swelling, or digestive distress after eating. This information assists in distinguishing a potential tomato allergy from other food sensitivities or intolerances. However, this test cannot diagnose an allergy on its own or predict how severe a future allergic reaction might be.
