this was a blood test for Allergies then it would only show up a

problem food if you've ate the offender in the last few months and

Allergic reactions usually show within a short time after ingestion.

IGG blood test for food intolerances which are delayed reactions is

by all the accounts/info a more suitable test for our children,

casein and/or gluten etc more likely to show up in intolerance tests,

but again if the food intolerance being tested for hasn't been

ingested within the last few months it won't show up on the test.

Hope this helps,

best wishes,
