Parsley is a culinary herb used in kitchens around the world, and for most people it is a harmless garnish or seasoning. In some individuals, however, the proteins in parsley can trigger an immune response that produces allergy symptoms. A parsley allergy test measures the level of specific IgE antibodies in the blood to help determine whether a person is sensitized to this herb.

About Parsley Allergy Test | Food Allergies in Milpitas

Parsley allergy is a type of food allergy that occurs when the immune system identifies proteins in the herb as a threat.

When parsley is eaten, the immune system of a sensitized person produces immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies that bind to parsley proteins. These antibodies attach to immune cells, and subsequent exposure can prompt the release of histamine and other chemicals that cause symptoms.

Symptoms of a parsley allergy can include itching or tingling in the mouth, hives, swelling of the lips or tongue, nasal congestion, and digestive discomfort. In rare cases, a severe reaction known as anaphylaxis may occur, which requires immediate medical attention.

Parsley belongs to the Apiaceae family, which also includes celery, carrot, and fennel. Some people with a parsley allergy may also react to related plants due to cross-reactivity, and a clinician can help interpret test results in the context of a person's history.
