# Chicken

> This test measures specific antibodies in your blood to see if your immune system reacts to proteins found in chicken. It helps determine if symptoms like hives, stomach pain, or breathing trouble after eating chicken are caused by an allergic reaction. This information helps doctors distinguish a true food allergy from other types of food intolerance or digestive issues. However, this test cannot predict exactly how severe a future reaction will be based on the numbers alone.
