wo kann man ein allergietest machen — can a microbiome test help?

Allergy testing should be done by an allergist using validated methods like skin prick tests or specific IgE blood tests. Microbiome tests (e.g., stool analysis) are not clinically validated for diagnosing allergies. While research links gut microbiome composition to immune regulation and allergic diseases, the evidence is still observational and not sufficient for individual diagnosis. Direct-to-consumer microbiome tests lack standardization and FDA approval for this purpose. They may provide general insights but cannot replace medical allergy testing. Use with caution and consult a doctor. Evidence: human-moderate (associations exist, but no clinical diagnostic utility).
