REAL Opinions from Students of the Course of Allergens

Frequently asked questions about Allergens

Food allergens you should know

Food regulations require certain allergens to be declared on food product labels.

Allergens that must be declared on labels include cereals containing gluten, crustaceans, eggs, fish, peanuts, soy, milk and dairy products, tree nuts, celery, mustard, sesame seeds, sulfur dioxide and sulfites, as well as mollusks.

Accurate declaration of these allergens on labels is crucial to properly inform consumers and prevent health risks.

What are food intolerance tests?

Food intolerance tests are procedures carried out to identify possible intolerances to certain foods. These tests may include blood tests, skin tests, or food elimination and reintroduction trials.

However, it is important to keep in mind that the effectiveness and interpretation of these tests are a matter of debate within the medical community and that they are not always considered definitive diagnoses.

It is recommended that food intolerance tests be performed under the supervision of a healthcare professional and that other clinical factors and symptoms be taken into account to obtain an accurate diagnosis.

Do babies have food allergies?

Yes, food allergies in babies do exist. Some common foods that can trigger allergies in babies are cow's milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, fish, and shellfish.

Symptoms can range from skin rashes and breathing problems to vomiting and diarrhea.

It's important for parents to watch for any adverse reactions after introducing new foods and to consult a doctor if they suspect a food allergy in their baby.

What is the difference between food intolerances and food allergies?

Food intolerances and food allergies are two different conditions. Intolerances involve a negative response by the body to certain foods due to difficulty digesting or processing certain components, such as lactose or gluten.

Symptoms may include stomach discomfort, bloating, or diarrhea.

On the other hand, food allergies are immune system responses to specific proteins present in foods.

These reactions can be severe and trigger symptoms such as hives, difficulty breathing, or anaphylaxis, a potentially life threatening reaction. Food allergies require strict avoidance of the allergen, while intolerances may allow small amounts of the problematic foods.
