Garlic is a common culinary ingredient, but for some people it can trigger an immune response. An allergy to garlic is typically mediated by immunoglobulin E (IgE), the antibody responsible for many immediate allergic reactions. This test measures the level of garlic-specific IgE in the blood to help identify whether a garlic allergy is present.

About Garlic Allergy Test | Food Allergy in Fajardo

The Garlic Allergy Test is a blood test that detects IgE antibodies directed against garlic proteins.

IgE antibodies bind to specific allergens and, upon re-exposure, can cause symptoms such as hives, itching, swelling, or in severe cases, difficulty breathing. A blood test for garlic-specific IgE provides an objective measure of sensitization.

Elevated garlic-specific IgE may support a diagnosis of garlic allergy when considered alongside a person's medical history and symptoms. However, a positive result alone does not confirm an allergy, and a negative result does not entirely rule it out.

This test is typically ordered when a healthcare provider suspects a garlic allergy based on reactions after eating garlic or foods containing garlic. Results should be interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional in the context of the individual's overall health.
