# Tea

> This test measures the amount of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in tea. It helps show whether your immune system is overreacting to tea, which is useful if you experience symptoms like hives, nausea, or congestion after drinking it. This measurement helps distinguish a potential allergy from other issues like caffeine sensitivity. However, this test alone cannot diagnose an allergy or predict how severe a future reaction might be.
