Food Allergy: Introduction

A food allergy is an adverse immune response that occurs when the body mistakenly identifies a certain food protein as harmful, triggering a protective reaction. Symptoms can range from mild (such as hives, itching, or gastrointestinal discomfort) to severe and potentially life-threatening (like anaphylaxis, characterized by difficulty breathing, a drop in blood pressure, and dizziness). Common allergenic foods include nuts, milk, eggs, shellfish, and wheat. Management typically involves avoiding the allergenic food and having emergency medication like epinephrine accessible.
