Find Clarity About Your Pistachio Allergies
When your body reacts unexpectedly to foods, it can feel like you’re navigating a minefield of uncertainty. That sudden itching, swelling, or digestive discomfort after enjoying pistachios or foods containing them isn’t just uncomfortable – it’s worrying. Our Pistachio Allergen Test provides the answers you need to take control of your health and enjoy peace of mind.
Understanding Your Pistachio Allergy Test
This specialised blood test detects specific antibodies your body produces when reacting to pistachio proteins. Unlike general allergy tests, our pistachio-specific screening gives you precise information about your sensitivity to this particular nut. The test is simple, requiring just a small blood sample, and our professional phlebotomists ensure your comfort throughout the process.
Many South Africans discover they have pistachio allergies after experiencing mild to severe reactions, often without realising pistachios were the trigger. This test eliminates the guesswork and provides definitive answers about your body’s response to pistachios.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you experience any of these symptoms after eating pistachios or foods containing them, this test could provide life-changing clarity:
- Itching or tingling in the mouth, lips, or throat
- Hives, skin rashes, or eczema flare-ups
- Swelling of the lips, face, tongue, or throat
- Digestive issues like nausea, abdominal pain, or diarrhoea
- Nasal congestion or difficulty breathing
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Anaphylaxis in severe cases (requires immediate medical attention)
Even if your reactions seem mild, understanding your allergy status helps you make safer food choices and prevents potentially serious reactions in the future.
