Orange (f33) IgG details
What Orange (f33) IgG shows
This test measures IgG antibodies to proteins in orange. Your immune system commonly makes IgG to foods you eat regularly, so the result mainly reflects exposure to orange rather than an allergy. Food IgG tests are sometimes used to look at possible food sensitivities, and a higher result generally means more frequent or recent exposure. However, the link between food IgG levels and symptoms is debated, and this test does not measure the IgE antibodies involved in classic food allergy. Results are best discussed with a clinician alongside your symptoms and diet, rather than used on their own to cut out foods.
