The Legume Allergy Test Panel measures immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against five common legumes: peanut, soy bean, chickpea, lentil, and red kidney bean. Legumes are a broad plant family, and allergy to one does not always mean allergy to another, although cross-reactivity can occur. A blood draw screens all five at once, which helps when symptoms such as hives, itching, or digestive upset follow meals containing beans, lentils, or soy. Peanut and soy are among the more frequently recognised legume allergens, and results are interpreted with your symptom history.

• Peanut-specific IgE Measures IgE antibodies that react to peanut proteins.
• Soy Bean-specific IgE Measures IgE antibodies directed against soy bean allergens.
• Chickpea-specific IgE Measures IgE antibodies that bind to chickpea proteins.
• Lentil-specific IgE Measures IgE antibodies that recognise lentil proteins.
• Red Kidney Bean-specific IgE Measures IgE antibodies that react to red kidney bean proteins.

• People who develop hives, itching, or digestive symptoms after eating beans, lentils, or soy.
• Individuals with a known peanut or soy allergy who want to check other legumes.
• Anyone who has had a suspected food reaction and wants to identify a trigger.
• People with pollen allergies and related oral symptoms after legumes.
• Caregivers investigating reactions in children after legume-containing meals.

• No fasting is required.
• Continue your usual medications unless a healthcare provider advises otherwise.
• Pause antihistamines before testing only if your provider instructs you to, as they may affect some allergy results.
• List the legumes you eat and any symptoms you have noticed to help interpret the panel.

Results provide a separate IgE level for peanut, soy bean, chickpea, lentil, and red kidney bean. A higher level may suggest sensitisation to that legume, while a low or undetectable level makes allergy less likely. IgE results cannot confirm a diagnosis alone or predict reaction severity. Because legumes share some proteins, sensitivity to one may occasionally accompany sensitivity to another. Your healthcare provider will interpret the panel with your history. Discuss any positive or unexpected result with a healthcare provider before changing your diet.
