Lettuce is a common leafy green, but it can occasionally trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
Lettuce belongs to the Asteraceae family, which also includes ragweed, chrysanthemums, and sunflower. Because of this botanical relationship, some people who react to those plants may also react to lettuce.
Symptoms of a lettuce allergy can include itching or tingling in the mouth, hives, swelling of the lips or tongue, and in more serious cases, difficulty breathing or digestive upset. Reactions typically occur soon after eating the vegetable.
This test uses a blood sample to detect specific IgE antibodies directed at lettuce. Results are reported as a numeric value that, along with your clinical history, can help a healthcare provider assess whether a lettuce allergy is present.
