Hello! Can I be allergic to Dextrose as a food additive. I have had ALCAT tests and not seem to be conclusive. I have been watching ingredient lists on products at home when I have a rapid heart beat, throaqt swelling. So far I have seem only Dextrose and Soybean Oil as common.
The ALCAT Test is NOT a food allergy test. It is designed to test for intolerances, which have a delayed reaction. So it is unlikely that you allergy is proved. SO skin prick test is ideal to diagnose food allergies. Kindly consult a allergist for the same.
