# Rice

> This test measures specific IgE antibodies in your blood to see if your immune system reacts to rice. It helps determine if symptoms like hives, swelling, or stomach pain occurring after meals are likely caused by an allergic reaction to rice. This information helps differentiate a true food allergy from other sensitivities. However, this test cannot diagnose food intolerances or digestive issues that are not related to an immune system response.
