What do elevated IgG antibodies to certain foods mean on my FOODStats report?

0

Elevated IgG antibodies indicate a delayed immune-mediated reaction to certain foods tested. This may manifest as a variety of symptoms. Because ill effects are not felt right away after intake of the suspect food, pinpointing symptoms to specific foods may prove challenging. Generally speaking, symptoms may manifest anywhere from 2-72 hours after consumption of the culpable food. IgG antibodies live actively in circulation for about 21 days with a residual activity on mast cells for about 2-3 months. Symptoms may therefore persist for weeks to months after omitting the culpable food from the diet.
