What is Allergy Candida albicans?

This blood test measures specific IgE antibodies to Candida albicans, a common yeast naturally present in the body. It helps determine if your immune system is overreacting to Candida, which can contribute to chronic symptoms like fatigue, digestive issues, or skin problems.

Why is this test important?

Identifying an IgE-mediated allergy to Candida albicans can be important for individuals experiencing persistent, unexplained symptoms. A positive result suggests that an allergic response to this yeast might be contributing to your health issues, guiding targeted treatment and management strategies.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
