Order Alfalfa Allergy TestThe Alfalfa Allergy Profile measures IgE antibodies specific to alfalfa, a legume that appears in foods, teas, and some herbal products. Because alfalfa can produce allergic reactions through ingestion, inhalation, or contact, this test helps clarify whether a person's immune system has sensitized to its proteins.
About Alfalfa Allergy Test in Seattle
Alfalfa allergy is uncommon but well documented, and testing focuses on the immune protein most often responsible for reactions.
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is a flowering plant in the legume family. Its seeds, sprouts, and leaves are consumed as food, while its pollen and dried plant material are encountered in agricultural and herbal settings. Individuals who react to alfalfa typically produce IgE antibodies that recognize specific proteins in the plant.
The Alfalfa Allergy Profile uses a blood sample to quantify IgE antibodies directed against alfalfa. A healthcare professional collects the specimen, and the laboratory reports the antibody level. Results are interpreted alongside a person's history, because a measurable IgE level does not by itself confirm that symptoms will occur.
Cross-reactivity is a practical consideration. People allergic to other legumes, such as peanut or soybean, may show IgE binding to alfalfa without clinical symptoms. Conversely, a negative result does not entirely exclude alfalfa allergy when the exposure history is compelling. Testing is therefore one element of a broader evaluation.
