What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing symptoms like itching, hives, swelling, stomach upset, or breathing trouble after eating foods seasoned with tarragon. It's also useful if you've noticed reactions to similar herbs and want to check whether tarragon could be a trigger. The test looks for a specific immune marker that shows your body may be sensitized to this spice.

What's included in this test?

This test measures one specific allergy marker connected to tarragon exposure. Checking this single marker helps you understand whether your immune system reacts to this particular herb, which is useful if you suspect it's behind symptoms you've noticed after eating certain seasoned foods.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your account with the specific value explained alongside the normal reference range, so you can see exactly where you fall. If your result is positive, a practical next step is to avoid tarragon and related plants (like mugwort or fennel) and watch for symptoms when eating foods that may contain it, then retest if your diet or symptoms change. If you experience severe reactions like trouble breathing or swelling of the face or throat, seek medical care right away. A standard lab report is downloadable from your account, and you can track this marker over time using the trends feature.

How can I naturally support my body if I'm sensitive to tarragon?
The most effective approach is simply avoiding tarragon and dishes that contain it, since there's no supplement or remedy that reverses a sensitization. Reading ingredient labels carefully and asking about seasonings when eating out can help you steer clear of hidden exposure. Some people find that keeping a food and symptom journal makes it easier to spot patterns and confirm which foods to avoid. Staying hydrated and eating a balanced, anti-inflammatory diet can also support your overall immune health.
When will I get my results?
Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your lab visit. Once processed, they'll be uploaded directly to your secure online account, and you'll be notified as soon as they're available. You can log in anytime after that to view your report in full.
Who should consider this test?
Anyone who has noticed itching, swelling, digestive upset, or other allergic-type symptoms after eating foods seasoned with tarragon should consider this test. It's also a good option for people with known sensitivities to related plants like mugwort, celery, or fennel, since these can sometimes cross-react. If you're trying to pinpoint the cause of unexplained reactions to spiced foods, this test can help narrow things down.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Common signs include itching or tingling in the mouth, hives or skin rashes, stomach cramps, nausea, or swelling of the lips and tongue after eating tarragon-seasoned food. Some people also notice sneezing, a runny nose, or mild breathing difficulty. If these symptoms consistently follow meals with tarragon, it's worth checking with this test.
What does a positive result mean?
A positive result means your immune system has produced antibodies against tarragon, which suggests you're sensitized to it. This doesn't automatically mean you have a full allergy — it means your body recognizes tarragon as a potential threat, and you may experience symptoms if exposed. The best step is to reduce or eliminate tarragon from your diet and watch how your body responds.
How often should I retest?
If you've eliminated tarragon from your diet and your symptoms have improved, you generally don't need to retest often. Retesting can be helpful if you reintroduce the herb later, or if new symptoms appear that make you want to double check your sensitivity status. Many people find retesting every year or two, or after a diet change, gives a useful update.
What should I do if my results are abnormal?
If your result comes back positive, start by removing tarragon and tarragon-containing dishes from your meals and see if your symptoms ease up. Keep a simple log of what you eat and any reactions to help confirm the connection. If symptoms are severe or you have trouble breathing, swelling, or dizziness after exposure, treat it as urgent and seek medical care immediately.

What this means

A negative result means no significant IgE antibodies to tarragon were detected, so an allergy to this herb is unlikely. A positive result would mean your immune system is sensitized to tarragon, which may explain symptoms you notice after exposure.

* Regular blood test results (e.g., CBC) typically start arriving the next business day after sample collection. More advanced tests may take longer due to complexity.
