Unexplained rashes, digestive upset, swelling, or breathing difficulties in children may be linked to food allergies. The Child Food Allergy Panel (IgE) screens for common food allergens that often trigger reactions in childhood, helping parents and healthcare professionals identify hidden dietary risks and take early steps to protect health.

Why Child Food Sensitivity Panel (IgE) Matters?

Food allergies in children can range from mild discomfort to severe, potentially life-threatening reactions. Identifying the specific foods that trigger immune responses enables parents and clinicians to implement safe dietary choices and prevention strategies. Early detection not only reduces risk but also supports a healthier, more confident approach to nutrition.

FAQs

Who should consider this test?

This test is recommended for children who experience persistent digestive issues, skin rashes, chronic hives, or suspected food allergies such as reactions to milk, eggs, nuts, or wheat. It helps parents and healthcare providers identify possible IgE-mediated allergic responses.

How is the Child Food Allergy Panel carried out?

The test is performed through a simple blood sample, which is analysed in the laboratory to measure IgE antibodies to common food allergens that often affect children.

Does this test cover environmental allergies?

No, this panel specifically measures IgE responses to food allergens only. For suspected environmental triggers like pollen, dust mites, or pet dander, a Child Respiratory Allergy Panel (IgE) may be more suitable.

How are results reported?

The results show the level of IgE antibody response to individual food allergens, indicating whether a child has mild, moderate, or strong allergic sensitisation. This helps in planning diet adjustments and medical care.

What should parents do if their child tests positive for food allergies?

If the panel shows positive results, parents should consult a paediatrician or allergy specialist to discuss avoidance strategies, dietary planning, and possible treatments such as antihistamines or immunotherapy for long-term management.
