Vanilla

This test measures the level of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in vanilla. It helps determine if your immune system treats vanilla as a harmful substance, which can explain symptoms like hives, swelling, or digestive issues after eating foods containing vanilla. This testing helps distinguish a specific reaction to vanilla from sensitivities to other ingredients often found in sweets, such as milk or eggs. However, a positive result does not predict how severe a future allergic reaction might be or diagnose digestive intolerances not related to the immune system.
