These studies suggest that food allergies can cause a range of symptoms from mild (such as mouth itching) to severe (such as anaphylaxis), affect skin and respiratory systems, and are often triggered by common foods including milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish, with diagnosis involving history, skin testing, and sometimes oral provocation tests.
Food allergies are adverse immune responses to food proteins that can cause a range of symptoms affecting various parts of the body, including the skin, gastrointestinal tract, and respiratory system. These reactions can be IgE-mediated or non-IgE-mediated and may vary in severity.
Food allergies manifest through a variety of symptoms that can affect the skin, gastrointestinal, and respiratory tracts. These symptoms can be immediate or delayed and range from mild to severe, including life-threatening anaphylaxis. Common allergens are known to trigger these reactions, and in some sensitive individuals, even non-ingestive exposure can cause severe symptoms. Diagnosis and management require a systematic approach, including history taking, laboratory studies, and sometimes food challenges, with the mainstay of treatment being avoidance of the allergen and emergency intervention in case of accidental exposure.
