Allergy Check
$109 AUD
Allergies are on the increase, and food allergies in particular are becoming more common. Allergies are caused by an overreaction of the body’s immune system to certain innocuous molecules from the outside world. These allergens may be from foods, pollens, house dust, animal hair or moulds.

Are you living with an allergy?

Allergens trigger immune cells to release histamine and other inflammatory chemicals that result in an allergic reaction. Symptoms of an allergy are varied and can include itching, burning and swelling around the mouth, swelling of face or eyes, runny nose, skin rash, hives, diarrhoea, abdominal cramps, breathing difficulties, vomiting and nausea.

This Allergy Check uses RAST panels to measure specific IgE antibodies in your blood. IgE is normally found in very small amounts in the blood, and functions as part of the body's immune system. Elevated IgE levels can indicate a tendency to be hyperallergic, often associated with conditions like eczema, hay fever, or allergic asthma. This extensive allergy screen includes the 7 RAST panels listed below.
