Allergen Profile, Cashew Nut, IgE With Component Reflex

This test measures specific antibodies in your blood to see how your immune system reacts to different proteins found in cashew nuts. By identifying which specific proteins trigger a response, it helps show whether you are at risk for a severe allergic reaction or if your symptoms are likely caused by a milder cross-reaction with pollen. This information helps distinguish between a true food allergy and sensitivity limited to the mouth and throat. However, this test cannot predict the exact severity of a future reaction or diagnose an allergy without a review of your symptoms and medical history.
