Description

Order a Rye Allergy IgE Blood Test to detect an allergy to rye.  This test measures the amount of allergen-specific antibodies in a blood sample. Rye is one of the most unusual and hardy cereals available. Rye is widely used in bread-making, alcohol fermentation, paper production, the timber industry, as well as fuel and livestock feed.  Rye allergens have a lot of cross-reactivity with other cereal grains, including wheat and barley, but only a little with oat and potato extracts.

Common rye allergy symptoms could include:

  • hives
  • itching
  • swelling of the tongue, lips, or throat
  • rash
  • diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting
  • in severe cases, anaphylaxis
