Unwarranted IgG tests and their harmfulness

1. Abnormal food reactions intolerances and allergies
Recently, we have seen a large increase in the occurrence of allergic diseases affecting both children and adults (R.L. Fortunately, along with the increase of diseases, there is also an increase in knowledge and awareness of the risk. The first is an immune system response that unnecessarily fights off foreign proteins present in food. The consumer is entitled to information about the presence of these allergens in a food product. Food intolerance is a reaction that is associated exclusively with the digestive system. Food Intolerance runs without the activation of the immune system.2. Types of immune responses and their symptoms
The first is a convulsive reaction. Most often, these are severe skin or choking symptoms. Very important here is the timing of the reaction and the call of the ambulance. The elements involved include other immunoglobulins (IgG, IgM, IgA). It also happens that the allergic reaction is mixed There are both IgE-independent and IgE -dependent mechanisms involved. The severity of the allergy is due to the presence of IgE antibodies.3. IgG tests and their harmfulness
In an experiment conducted on 73 people with a suspicion of food allergy, IgG antibodies specific to food (mainly eggs, milk, casein, and psoriasis) were detected in 62% of cases, but no symptoms were reported after being provoked by the specific allergens. Antico et al. 2011). However, the lack of reference values, i.e. antibody-regulatory values, has been suggested. The recommendation of the IgG test is that there be a strictly independent dietary regulation that eliminates allergic reactions from the entire group of products that are triggered by IgG. It may not be particularly important for children to follow IgG alone. In the case of other IgG treatments, there may be no evidence of a clinical or clinical diagnosis of the disease, but the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (National Institute of Health and Clinical Investigation) and the American Academy of Immunology (National Academy of Health, National Institutes of Health) have indicated that there is no evidence for the effectiveness of these anti-immune immunological tests.4. How do you diagnose a food allergy?
They involve eliminating from the diet a suspected food allergy for 14 weeks, then returning to the diet after a specified time. Due to the variety of symptoms that may occur later after eating the harmful ingredient, the diagnosis of allergy is very difficult and multi-stage. If symptoms have been observed to subside during elimination and return after the re-introduction of the allergen into the diet, this is the basis for the detection of food allergies.
