Pine nuts, also called pignoles, are the edible seeds of certain pine trees and appear in pesto, salads, and baked goods. Although they are seeds rather than true tree nuts, they can still provoke allergic reactions in some people. This test measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood to help identify an allergy to pine nut proteins.

About Pine Nut (Pignoles) Allergy Test | Seeds in Hobbs

An allergy to pine nuts is an immune response to proteins found in these seeds, and it can occur even in people who tolerate other nuts or seeds.

When the immune system mistakenly identifies pine nut proteins as harmful, it produces immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies directed against them. These antibodies bind to cells in the body and trigger the release of chemicals such as histamine when the person is exposed to pine nuts again.

Symptoms of a pine nut allergy can range from mild to severe and may include hives, itching, swelling of the lips or face, stomach upset, wheezing, or difficulty breathing. In rare cases, a reaction can progress to anaphylaxis, a medical emergency that requires immediate treatment.

Because pine nuts are seeds, they are sometimes overlooked when people consider nut allergies. A blood test for pine nut-specific IgE can help clarify whether symptoms are related to this particular food, and results should be interpreted alongside a person's medical history and other findings.
