What is a Flour & Meat Allergy Profile Test?
Allergy occurs when the immune system interprets a foreign substance that is harmless to most people as harmful. When you are allergic, the immune system overreacts to the allergen by producing IgE immunoglobulins.
Why get one?
- If you have severe swelling, itching or diarrhoea.
- If there is a risk of an allergic reaction to a very small amount of allergen.
- If you are being treated with antihistamines or other medicines.
Instructions for use
Please take your sample in the morning. We advise that you use this at least one hour before any medication.
Tips for collecting your sample easily:
- You must drink plenty of water. Being well-hydrated will make it easier to collect your sample.
- Shower before you take your test or run your hands under warm water for a few minutes, as heat improves blood flow.
- Do light exercise (move around, walk, etc.) to get the blood flowing.
- Keep your arm below your heart level – let gravity do some of the work.
- Nails that are too long can make it difficult to collect a sample.
- Do not shake the sample vigorously but invert the tube gently 10 times. (gently swirl the tube after each drop of blood).
- Do not squeeze (milk) the finger.
- Re-warm your hands during collection if needed.

My experience was very good with this company. I got the results the same day the blood was taken. The results were displayed clearly through their site. I would recommend.
