What to watch with AllergieCheck | IgE-Antikörper Test and stress?

The MyBody-X AllergieCheck measures specific IgE antibodies against common allergens (e.g., pollen, dust mites, foods). Elevated IgE indicates sensitization, not necessarily clinical allergy. Stress can modulate immune function and may exacerbate allergic symptoms, but direct evidence that stress raises specific IgE levels is weak and inconsistent. While psychological stress influences neuroendocrine pathways (e.g., cortisol, catecholamines) that affect inflammation, the link to IgE is not robust enough for clinical guidance. Do not interpret the test as a stress marker. If you experience allergy-like symptoms during stress, consult a physician to rule out other causes such as histamine intolerance or non-allergic rhinitis. The test does not assess stress or its health impact. Evidence: mixed/unclear.
