I think I'm reacting to certain foods but not sure which ones...
When most people think of food allergies, they usually imagine someone eating a peanut and ending up in the emergency room and not being able to breathe. That’s what is called an immediate allergy (also known as an IgE hypersensitivity reaction).
But there is a different type of reaction to foods that is much less dramatic but still causes health issues. It is called a delayed non-IgE hypersensitivity reaction. This reaction is much more common and can include symptoms such as bloating, stomach pain, headaches, cough and a runny nose.
Common food intolerances include gluten, dairy, corn, eggs, soy, nuts, citrus, yeast and night-shades (tomatoes, capsicums, white potatoes and eggplant).
Ways to ascertain which foods you are sensitive to include:
- Guided Elimination Diet
- Food Sensitivity Testing
