An immunoglobulin test measures the level of certain immunoglobulins, or antibodies, in the blood. Antibodies are proteins made by the immune system to fight antigens, such as bacteria, viruses, and toxins. The body makes different immunoglobulins to combat different antigens.
Adverse reactions to foods are causing increasingly more health problems. Approximately 5% of the population is affected by a food allergy. More than 40% of the population have delayed reactions, which occurs several hours or days after the food is consumed. The delay in the appearance of symptoms, makes it difficult to determine which foods could be considered as the trigger of the health problem.
