我們每天三餐吃下各種食物,卻可能因為不了解自己的體質與過敏症狀的成因,而吃進不適合身體的食物(過敏原)。這些食物被身體免疫系統視為敵人來對抗,身體因此發炎、受損、內耗,這就是過敏。
We eat a variety of foods for three meals a day, but we may eat unsuitable foods (allergens) because we do not understand our own constitution and the causes of allergies. These foods are regarded as enemies by the body’s immune system to fight, and the body becomes inflamed, damaged, and consumed internally. This is allergy.
Allergies can be divided into “acute” and “chronic”
急性過敏(第一型過敏反應),來自於體內IgE抗體,IgE與過敏原結合後,誘發身體釋出組織胺、白三烯等物質,引起流鼻水、蕁麻疹、呼吸困難等急性症狀。
慢性過敏(第三型過敏反應),又可稱之為食物不耐,通常是IgG抗體所造成。IgG與過敏原形成免疫複合物,隨著血流逐漸堆積在身體組織中形成慢性發炎反應。常引起皮膚、呼吸道、消化系統等症狀。由於發作緩慢且症狀複雜,所以容易被忽略或誤判。
Acute allergies:
Acute allergy (type 1 allergic reaction) comes from the IgE antibody in the body. After IgE combines with the allergen, it induces the body to release histamine, leukotrienes and other substances, causing acute symptoms such as runny nose, urticaria, and dyspnea.
Chronic allergies:
Chronic allergies (type III anaphylaxis), also known as food intolerance, are usually caused by IgG antibodies. IgG forms immune complexes with allergens, and gradually accumulates in body tissues along with the blood flow to form a chronic inflammatory response. Often cause skin, respiratory tract, digestive system and other symptoms. Due to the slow onset and complex symptoms, it is easy to be ignored or misjudged.
Acute allergic symptoms are fast and violent, and there will be an allergic reaction within about 30 minutes after touching or eating. Most people sometimes know that they are allergic to certain foods through their own experience.
Chronic allergies are different from acute allergies. The symptoms of chronic allergies do not occur until about 24-48 hours (or even 72 hours) after contact or ingestion. The symptoms of chronic allergies are usually more complicated, so it is difficult to accurately predict whether to eat within 3 days In addition to the complex diet of modern people (a dish may contain 5-6 kinds of ingredients), the only way to know the cause of chronic allergies is to rely on testing.

Q:急性過敏與慢性過敏有什麼不同?
A:急性過敏症狀快速、猛烈,一經碰觸或食入約30分鐘內就會有過敏反應,一般人有時藉由自身經驗知道自己對某些食物過敏。慢性過敏與急性過敏不一樣,在接觸或食入後約24-48小時(甚至72小時)後,才發生慢性過敏症狀,慢性過敏的症狀通常較為複雜,所以很難準確回推3天內吃過或接觸過的事物,再加上現代人飲食複雜化(一道菜可能有5-6種食材),要掌握慢性過敏原因,只能靠檢測得知。
Q:晶片式過敏原檢測的價值為何?
A:醫院的傳統過敏原檢測,僅做急性過敏,品項又少(最多36種),且依患者自身經驗就可以大致掌握。加上傳統過敏原檢測無法提供完整後續建議,價值自然較低。凌越的晶片式過敏原檢測則完全不同,不僅完整評估急性與慢性過敏,且檢測品項最多(達123種)。凌越過敏原檢測之價值:
1.完整了解個人體質。
2.提供個人專屬的健康(低敏)飲食建議。
3.能改善過敏體質、提升健康。
Q:目前過敏原篩選的準確度如何?
A:目前收集到的陽性控制血清之臨床實驗結果,其正確性與特異性高達百分之九十,與市面上現行過敏原檢測系統並駕齊驅或超越,並且更節省花費、提昇效率。
Q:過敏原檢測多久需要做一次?
A:一生中至少要做一次,一般建議一年做一次
Q:小孩幾歲時適合做過敏檢測?
A:一般小孩做過敏原檢測會建議3歲以上較適合,原因是3歲以上孩童吃的食物種類較廣也較齊全,做檢測才較具價值;但若是小於3歲的兒童,如有明顯過敏症狀也可做此檢測。
Q:對不曾碰過的食物,能測出對此食物過敏的嚴重度嗎?
A:不行。原理跟3歲以下兒童相同,不曾碰過的食物,就不會有第一次接觸的致敏化,也就不會有之後的過敏反應,故建議一種食物要吃過幾次之後,才測得出會不會對此食物有急性或慢性過敏。
Q:目前正在服藥或定期吃保健食品可以做檢測嗎?
A:可以。主要影響過敏檢測報告結果的是含〝類固醇〞的藥,高劑量或長期的類固醇藥物使用,會讓檢測數值下降,其中又以吃的及注射型類固醇用藥影響最大,其餘噴的、擦的類固醇藥較不影響。
Q:懷孕婦女可以做過敏原檢測嗎?
A:懷孕全期、產後哺乳期皆可。建議於懷孕第4個月前做檢測,幫助最大:
1. 能降低母親個人過敏的發生。
2.減少胎兒成為過敏兒的風險。
3.提供哺乳期的低敏飲食建議。
Q:每個不同階段做的檢測結果會相同嗎?
A:不盡相同。隨生活或飲食習慣的改變,長期避免接觸該項過敏原,或是接受藥物治療時,就會造成IgE、IgG濃度的下降。另外,當受試者接觸到新的過敏原時,也可能出現上次檢測沒有,但這次卻檢測出新的過敏項目。所以建議有過敏體質的民眾最好能每年檢測一次,以持續監控過敏現象。
(舉例:今天做跟3天後做,檢測結果可能幾乎一致;但若比較今天跟數個月後的報告,其檢測結果可能會有較明顯之差異。)
Q: What is the difference between acute allergies and chronic allergies?
A: The symptoms of acute allergies are fast and violent. Once touched or ingested, there will be an allergic reaction within about 30 minutes. Most people sometimes know that they are allergic to certain foods through their own experience. Chronic allergies are different from acute allergies. The symptoms of chronic allergies do not occur until about 24-48 hours (or even 72 hours) after contact or ingestion. The symptoms of chronic allergies are usually more complicated, so it is difficult to accurately predict whether to eat within 3 days In addition to the complex diet of modern people (a dish may contain 5-6 kinds of ingredients), the only way to know the cause of chronic allergies is to rely on testing.
Q: What is the value of chip-based allergen testing?
A: The traditional allergen testing in the hospital is only for acute allergies, and there are few items (up to 36 types), and it can be roughly mastered according to the patient’s own experience. In addition, traditional allergen testing cannot provide complete follow-up recommendations, so the value is naturally low. The chip-type allergen test of Leaper is completely different. It not only fully evaluates acute and chronic allergies, but also has the most testing items (up to 123 types). The value of Transcend allergen detection:
1. Complete understanding of personal physique.
2. Provide personal advice on healthy (hypoallergenic) diet.
3. It can improve allergic constitution and improve health.
Q: How accurate is the current allergen screening?
A: The accuracy and specificity of the clinical test results of the positive control serum collected so far are as high as 90%, which is on par with or surpasses the current allergen detection system on the market, and it saves costs and improves efficiency.
Q: How often do allergen tests need to be done?
A: Do it at least once in your life, and it is generally recommended to do it once a year
Q: What age is suitable for allergy testing?
A: Generally, it is recommended that children over 3 years old are more suitable for allergen testing. The reason is that children over 3 years old eat a wider variety of food and more complete, so it is more valuable to do testing; but if children under 3 years old, if there are obvious Allergy symptoms can also be tested.
Q: For foods that have never been touched, can the severity of food allergies be measured?
A: No. The principle is the same as that of children under 3 years old. Foods that have never been touched before will not be sensitized for the first time, and there will be no subsequent allergic reactions. Therefore, it is recommended to test a food after eating it several times. Find out if you have acute or chronic allergies to this food.
Q: Can I be tested if I am currently taking medicine or eating health food regularly?
A: Yes. Drugs containing “steroids” mainly affect the results of allergy test reports. High doses or long-term use of steroid drugs will reduce the test value. Among them, edible and injectable steroid drugs have the greatest impact, and the rest are sprayed and rubbed steroids. Drugs are less affected.
Q: Can pregnant women do allergy testing?
A: Both pregnancy and postpartum lactation are acceptable. It is recommended to do the test before the 4th month of pregnancy, which will help the most:
1. It can reduce the occurrence of mother’s personal allergy.
2. Reduce the risk of the fetus becoming an allergic child.
3. Provide low-sensitivity dietary advice for breastfeeding.
Q: Will the test results at different stages be the same?
A: Not all the same. With the change of life or eating habits, long-term avoidance of contact with the allergen, or receiving drug treatment, the concentration of IgE and IgG will decrease. In addition, when the subject is exposed to a new allergen, it may also appear that the last test did not detect a new allergy item this time. Therefore, it is recommended that people with allergies should be tested once a year to continuously monitor allergies.
(Example: The test results may be almost the same between today and 3 days later; but if you compare the test results today and a few months later, the test results may be significantly different.)
