Green Bell Pepper / Sweet Pepper Allergy Test

This IgE antibody allergy test uses a blood sample to determine if you are allergic to Green Bell Peppers.

The green pepper comes from the capsicum genus of plants, and is also known as the Sweet Pepper, Bell Pepper, and Red Pepper. Allergies to the green pepper occur when the body views the pepper as a harmful substance. The body then recruits the immune system to respond, causing an allergic reaction. 

Allergies to green peppers may indicate additional allergies to other capsicum plants, such as cayenne, paprika, and jalepenos. Green peppers also belong in the Nightshade family, and allergies to one member of the family can mean allergies to other members. Nightshades include potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, paprika, and cayenne pepper. 

Symptoms of allergic reactions to bell peppers include:

• Respiratory problems
• Itchy, swollen eyes
• Asthma
• Wheezing
• Headaches
• Eczema
• Abdominal pain
• Swelling of the face and mouth
• Anaphylaxis

If you experience some of these symptoms, you may have oral allergy syndrome (OAS), which is an allergy to certain raw fruits and vegetables. If this is the case, then you should be able to eat cooked green peppers without experiencing any issues.
