What is IgG Antibodies to 184 Foods?
Immunoglobulin G comprises roughly 75% of serum immunoglobulins and is the principal antibody of secondary immune responses. IgG antibodies to dietary antigens are detected in most healthy individuals and are thought to reflect normal mucosal exposure and tolerance. Whether elevated IgG titres to specific foods cause symptoms or merely mark exposure remains contested; some practitioners interpret them as markers of delayed food sensitivity, while mainstream immunology views them as physiological responses to frequently consumed proteins.
