Description
Ovalbumin causes slow development of food intolerance symptoms (not earlier than 3-5 days after consuming chicken eggs).
This test is used to diagnose food intolerance to ovalbumin. Food intolerance occurs more frequently compared to food allergy and proceeds as an allergic reaction involving specific immunoglobulins G (IgG-mediated). In this case, a hidden food allergy develops – a delayed-type allergy, which is more dangerous because external clinical manifestations of the disease will develop slowly (up to several days), and quite often, they may be absent altogether for a long time. Slowly progressing pathological processes in the body's organs and tissues can often lead to chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory and nervous systems, skin, and can also have a negative impact on the mental sphere (depression, hyper-excitability in children).
