Order Grapefruit Allergy Test | Citrus AllergiesA grapefruit allergy is an immune response to proteins found in the fruit, its juice, and sometimes its peel or pollen. Because reactions can range from mild oral itching to more serious symptoms, identifying the trigger matters. The Grapefruit Allergy Screen measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood to help clarify whether grapefruit is the likely cause of a reaction.
About Grapefruit Allergy Test | Citrus Allergies in Poway
This test looks for IgE antibodies that target grapefruit.
IgE antibodies are part of the immune system's response to allergens. When a person is sensitized to grapefruit, their blood may contain IgE that binds to proteins from the fruit.
The Grapefruit Allergy Screen uses a blood sample to measure the level of grapefruit-specific IgE. Results are reported alongside a reference range, and a healthcare professional interprets them in the context of symptoms and history.
A positive result indicates sensitization, not necessarily a clinical allergy. Some people have detectable IgE without reacting when they eat grapefruit, while others react even at low levels. This is why test results are best reviewed with a clinician rather than used alone.
