Black Peppercorn

This test measures the level of specific antibodies in your blood that react to black peppercorn. It helps show whether your immune system treats black pepper as a trigger, which is useful for investigating symptoms like itching, sneezing, or stomach upset after eating seasoned foods. This information helps distinguish a specific black pepper allergy from sensitivities to other spices or ingredients. However, a positive result does not predict the severity of a future reaction or diagnose digestive intolerances that do not involve the immune system.
