Information
Allergy test to diagnose cod allergy
Allergy to cod is a specific food allergy and can cause unpleasant symptoms. People who are allergic to cod are often advised to also avoid eating other forms of fish and fish products. To diagnose cod allergy and determine whether you are allergic to cod, this allergy test is recommended, which is carried out based on a venous blood test.
Why should I do an allergy test for cod?
Allergy tests for cod are important in diagnosing and managing your cod allergy. By avoiding cod and other fish products, people with allergies can avoid unpleasant symptoms and potentially serious reactions.
Can the test also detect fish allergy?
It is most common to react to cod if you are allergic to fish. Cod allergy is one of the most common fish allergies and you also run an increased risk of being allergic to all types of fish. Allergies are individual and symptoms can vary greatly depending on the person. Testing is carried out based on a venous blood sample sent to an accredited laboratory to analyze the presence of specific IgE antibodies against cod proteins. High levels of these antibodies indicate an allergic reaction to cod and possible risk of more cross-reactions to other types of fish as they may contain the same allergen.
Allergens from foods include various proteins that occur in foods and can cause an allergic reaction in the body.
