What you'll learn

Histamine and intolerance

See how genes like HNMT and AOC1 relate to how your body breaks down histamine, the molecule behind many reactions.

Food sensitivities

Learn how genes such as HLA-DQB1 and CYP1A2 are studied in relation to gluten, peanut, caffeine, and other food triggers.

Environmental allergies

Understand how genes like IL33 and TSLP relate to pollen, grass, pet, and mold allergen pathways.

Immune response

See how immune genes such as IL6 and IL23R relate to inflammation and how your body reacts to triggers.

Skin and other sensitivities

Find out how genes like TNF relate to skin reactions and other sensitivities.

What to do with your results

Get plain-language explanations and practical points to bring to your provider. Your DNA does not change, so this is one test for life.

What your report covers

Your Allergies and Food Sensitivities report looks at 63 genetic insights across 41 genes, grouped into five plain-language areas. Each one shows how your genes relate to a pathway, not a diagnosis.

Histamine & intolerance

These genes are studied for how they relate to histamine, the molecule behind many food and allergy reactions, and how your body breaks it down.

Histamine processingIntolerance pathways
Featured genesHNMTAOC1HRH1

Food sensitivities

These genes are studied in relation to common food triggers, including gluten, peanut, egg, and milk, plus caffeine and alcohol metabolism.

Environmental & seasonal allergies

These genes are studied in relation to environmental allergens such as pollen, grass, pet dander, and mold.

Featured genesIL33TSLPLRRC32

Immune response

These genes are involved in the broader immune and inflammation pathways behind how your body reacts to triggers.

Skin & other sensitivities

These genes relate to skin reactions and a few other sensitivities your body can have.

Frequently asked questions

How many genetic insights are included?

This report includes 63 genetic insights across 41 genes tied to allergies and food sensitivities. They are grouped into five areas: histamine and intolerance, food sensitivities, environmental allergies, immune response, and skin, drawing on genes such as HNMT, HLA-DQB1, and IL33.

Is a genetic test kit included?

No. The Allergies and Food Sensitivities report is a digital add-on for people who already have a PlexusDx genetic test. It reads your existing DNA data and turns it into 63 new insights, so there is no new kit to buy or swab to send.

How soon will my report be available?

Your Allergies and Food Sensitivities report is usually ready within moments. Because it uses the DNA data already on file from your PlexusDx genetic test, there is no waiting for lab processing. You will find it in your PlexusDx Results Portal.

Can I purchase this without a PlexusDx genetic test?

No. The report needs the DNA data from a completed PlexusDx genetic test, so you will want to take that test first. Once your DNA data is on file, you can add this report and any of our other genetic reports at any time.

What types of food and environmental sensitivities does this report cover?

The report covers 63 variants across histamine, food, and environmental pathways. It looks at histamine genes like HNMT and AOC1, food-trigger genes such as HLA-DQB1 (gluten and peanut) and CYP1A2 (caffeine), milk and egg genes, and environmental allergen genes like IL33 and TSLP.
