Green Pepper (Unripe) (f263) IgE details
What Green Pepper (Unripe) (f263) IgE shows
Green bell peppers are the unripe fruit of the sweet pepper plant and are eaten raw and cooked in many dishes. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to green pepper proteins to check for allergic sensitization. A positive result can help explain symptoms such as mouth itching, hives, swelling or digestive upset after eating peppers. Some reactions to raw vegetables are linked to sensitization to pollens, such as mugwort or birch, through shared proteins. A positive result shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, so it needs to be read against your symptoms and history, and an allergist may recommend further evaluation.
