Sesame Seed

This test measures the amount of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in sesame seeds. It helps show whether your immune system is sensitive to sesame, which is useful for investigating symptoms like hives, swelling, or digestive issues after eating. By identifying this specific sensitivity, the test helps distinguish a potential sesame allergy from reactions to other food ingredients. However, a positive result alone cannot predict the severity of a future reaction or confirm a diagnosis without a doctor's review of your medical history.
