# Eggplant

> This test measures the level of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in eggplant. It helps show whether your immune system treats eggplant as a harmful substance, which is useful for investigating symptoms like mouth itching, hives, or stomach upset after eating. This testing helps identify if eggplant is a potential trigger for your allergic reactions. However, the results alone cannot predict the severity of a future reaction or distinguish between a true allergy and a digestive intolerance.
