While total IgE can be elevated in certain conditions (e.g., parasites, immune disorders), it is not a marker for blood sugar. There is no evidence for such a link. To assess blood sugar, one needs fasting glucose, HbA1c, or an oral glucose tolerance test. The AllergieCheck is not suitable for that.
