Test Overview & Methodology
The Food Intolerance Allergy Test (IgG RAST) quantitatively measures immunoglobulin G antibodies directed against a comprehensive panel of common dietary antigens. Unlike immediate IgE-mediated allergic reactions, elevated IgG levels reflect delayed hypersensitivity responses that can contribute to chronic gastrointestinal disturbances, dermatological conditions such as eczema, and recurrent migraine episodes. This assay is performed using a validated enzyme immunoassay platform with confirmatory liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis when clinically indicated. Results must always be interpreted alongside a complete medical history and dietary elimination-challenge protocol supervised by a qualified physician.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
Dr. Ajay Singh | General Practitioner | DHA Registration ID: 36234132
โThe IgG food intolerance panel provides valuable insight into delayed hypersensitivity reactions that may underlie chronic conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome, atopic dermatitis, and recurrent headaches. However, isolated IgG elevations do not confirm clinical intolerance or allergy. These findings must be integrated with a thorough dietary history and an appropriately supervised elimination-provocation protocol. Patients must never discontinue prescribed medications or initiate restrictive diets based solely on these results without consulting their treating physician.โ
Advisory Notice & Clinical Precautions
โ ๏ธ Important Clinical Guidance
Do not alter prescribed medication regimens or implement elimination diets based solely on IgG test results without direct supervision from your treating physician. Inappropriate dietary exclusions can lead to nutritional deficiencies.
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Acute febrile illness or systemic infection within 24 hours prior to sample collection.
- Current immunosuppressive therapy or known severe immunodeficiency (physician clearance required).
- Signs of anaphylaxis including urticaria, angioedema, stridor, wheezing, or hypotension โ dial 998 or proceed to the nearest emergency department immediately.
- This test does not assess IgE-mediated food allergy or anaphylaxis risk and is not indicated for acute allergy diagnosis.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the difference between IgG food intolerance and IgE food allergy?
IgG-mediated food intolerance reflects a delayed hypersensitivity reaction that typically manifests hours to days after antigen exposure, presenting as bloating, fatigue, joint pain, or skin eruptions. IgE-mediated food allergy triggers immediate, potentially life-threatening reactions such as anaphylaxis. This IgG RAST panel is designed exclusively for delayed intolerance profiling and does not predict acute allergic events.
2. How should I prepare for the IgG RAST food intolerance test?
No special dietary preparation is required. Continue your regular eating pattern because IgG levels reflect recent food exposure. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to blood collection. Schedule a VIP home phlebotomy appointment between 8 AM and 11 PM for convenient sample collection at your residence.
3. Can this test replace my current medications or a medically supervised elimination diet?
No. Test results alone are not diagnostic and must never be used to self-prescribe dietary changes or discontinue prescribed therapies. Any elimination diet should be implemented under the direct supervision of a qualified healthcare professional to avoid nutritional imbalances and to confirm clinical relevance through structured food challenges.
