FREQUENTLY REACTIVE FOODS
Foods That Commonly Appear in Elevated IgG Reports
While every person's IgG profile is unique, some foods consistently appear at higher frequencies across population-level sensitivity data. Here are the most commonly flagged categories and why they tend to provoke immune responses.
🌾 Wheat
One of the most widespread IgG triggers. Wheat proteins — including those in bread, pasta, pastry, and many processed foods — are consumed in large quantities, which can drive elevated antibody exposure.
🥚 Egg
Egg white proteins are among the most potent IgG triggers. Some individuals react to egg white but tolerate yolk — Pinnertest tests both separately in applicable panels.
🥛 Dairy
Cow's milk casein and whey proteins frequently appear in IgG reports. Reactions to dairy can manifest as digestive discomfort, skin issues, or general systemic inflammation.
🌰 Almond & Tree Nuts
As almond milk and almond-flour products have grown in popularity, almond IgG sensitivity reports have also increased. Other tree nuts (walnut, cashew, hazelnut) are also commonly tested.
🍫 Chocolate & Yeast
Cocoa and yeast-containing foods (bread, beer, fermented products) are frequently flagged. Yeast sensitivity in particular can affect people who eat a lot of bread, pastry, or fermented foods.
🍅 Tomato
Widely used in sauces, soups, and condiments, tomato is a hidden ingredient in many meals — making tomato sensitivity easy to miss without systematic testing.
