Food Allergy FAQ's

Overview of Food Allergies

What is a Food Allergy?

A food allergy occurs when the body mistakenly reacts to a certain food or ingredient as if it were harmful. The substance that triggers the reaction is called an allergen.

What are the Symptoms of a Food Allergy Reaction?

Symptoms can appear within a few minutes or up to a few hours after consuming the allergen and can affect various parts of the body, including:

  • Skin rash or eczema
  • Swelling of the tongue or throat, leading to difficulty breathing
  • Itching in the mouth and throat, cramps, nausea, diarrhea, and/or vomiting
  • Anaphylaxis
  • Drop in blood pressure and loss of consciousness
  • Death

What is Anaphylaxis?

Anaphylaxis is a severe and rapid allergic reaction that can involve multiple areas of the body. The most dangerous symptoms can impair breathing and blood circulation, potentially leading to death.

What are the Most Common Foods that Cause Allergic Reactions?

The most common allergenic foods include:


  • Milk
  • Eggs
  • Peanuts
  • Tree nuts (such as walnuts, almonds, cashews, pistachios, and pecans)
  • Wheat
  • Soy
  • Fish
  • Crustacean shellfish (such as shrimp, lobster, and crab)

How are Food Allergies Diagnosed?

A doctor can diagnose food allergies using various tests.

How are Allergic Reactions Treated?

Allergic reactions should be managed according to the individual's Food Allergy Action Plan/Emergency Care Plan. Antihistamines and other medications can be used, and in severe cases, epinephrine should be administered as soon as possible. Always call 911 in case of a severe reaction.

How Can an Allergic Reaction be Avoided?

The best way to prevent a reaction is to avoid the allergenic food. Implement a system for carefully checking ingredient labels and have a plan to minimize exposure to allergens, including airborne particles.

What is Cross Contact?

Cross contact occurs when a food containing an allergen comes into contact with a food or surface that does not contain the allergen.
