Why Allergen Testing is Essential
Teas, herbs, and spices can be contaminated with allergens during cultivation, processing, or packaging. Common allergens in these products include:
- Gluten (due to cross-contamination with wheat, barley, or rye)
- Peanuts and tree nuts (from shared processing facilities)
- Sesame seeds
- Milk, eggs, soy, and mustard
Undeclared allergens pose serious risks to consumers with food allergies, making accurate allergen testing vital for food manufacturers, suppliers, and retailers.
