Description:
Metametrix IgG Food Antibodies and Celiac Profile. The Allergix IgG4 antibody is related to “delayed” or non-atopic food reactions that exacerbate or contribute to many different health problems. Simultaneous high levels of many IgG4 food-specific antibodies are generally associated with intestinal hyperpermeability. This profile measures the IgG4 levels in serum that react to 90 different foods, including commonly eaten foods such as corn, milk, egg, and wheat. A food reaction patient guide is provided with each test result. Requires a blood draw at the lab of your choice. BLOOD DRAW FEE NOT INCLUDED. Doctors Order Provided, you receive the results.

Sample Report

Metametrix Innovation in IgG Antibody Testing

• New patent-pending IgG4 assay allows our test to show less false positives leading to better patient compliance.
• First test to quantitate IgG4
• Eliminates non-specific binding, lowering false positives without rejecting true positives

Common offending frequently eaten foods typically hard to avoid:

• Milk
• Corn
• Wheat
• Egg
• Foods processed with molds such as black tea, breads, and fruit juices

Metametrix offers two Allergix IgG4 Food Antibody Profiles:

• IgG4 Food Antibody Profile – measures serum levels of IgG4 antibodies specific to 90 food antigens. A four-day rotation diet is included.
• Bloodspot IgG4 Food Antibody Profile – measures levels of IgG4 antibodies specific to 30 commonly offending foods from an easy-to-use finger stick.  A four-day rotation diet is included.
