Many doctors call allergies the "plague of the third millennium." And all due to the fact that more and more people are beginning to suffer from this disease. This is due to the deteriorating environment, stress, weakened immunity. But food can also provoke this disease - according to WHO experts, about 8% of people on The earth suffers precisely from food allergies, and the disease can be provoked by a variety of foods nutrition.

Milk

The problem is caused by the high content of protein, which in its own way is foreign to the human body. Most often, the problem is detected already in childhood, but many children easily "outgrow" such a problem, but for many, allergies can persist for life.

True, one should not confuse true allergies with lactose intolerance (the latter is often caused by metabolic disorders).

By the way, fermented milk, as well as condensed milk, are less likely to lead to allergies, since they undergo special processing.

Citrus fruit

Also, they often lead to allergies, which is caused by the fact that such fruits are exotic, to which our body is not accustomed. It is for this reason that many Russian doctors believe that it is best to consume local fruits - they contain everything necessary for our body, and they are better absorbed than exotic ones. This is due to the fact that our body may lack some of the enzymes necessary for their digestion.

Most often, allergies are caused by oranges, grapefruits.

Cereals

The most common allergies are semolina and wheat. And all because of the protein included in the composition - some organisms can perceive this protein as foreign agents. Phytic acid and gluten can also be a problem.

By the way, many manufacturers of baby food do not add the latter substance to their products, because it is gluten that can lead to intolerance and disrupt the digestion process.

Chocolate

Allergies to the cocoa beans from which chocolate is made are rare. But you can still find it, because 15% of this product consists of protein, which just causes unpleasant reactions in the body.

But the problem isn't just protein.

This is due to the presence of such ingredients in the product as:

  • milk;
  • nuts;
  • wheat;
  • soy.

Each of these ingredients in chocolate can cause an allergic reaction. Therefore, when buying chocolate, it is so important to carefully read the composition.

Eggs

The danger of eggs in the presence of protein in the composition, which just becomes a frequent cause of the development of allergic reactions. Moreover, this can happen at any age, no matter what eggs you eat - chicken, goose, etc.

Moreover, some allergy sufferers can safely eat yolks, refusing proteins, and in difficult cases, eggs must be completely abandoned.

The problem with such allergies is that eggs are often included in many other foods, for example, baked goods, mayonnaise.

Honey

This product is delicious and healthy, but can lead to rashes, itching and other unpleasant manifestations of allergies, including swelling. And it's all about the pollen that hardworking bees collect from a variety of plants.

Nuts

One of the most common allergies. Many films show that people, after eating just a few nuts, fainted - and this is true. Even 2-3 nuts, if there is a problem, can cause anaphylactic shock - if assistance is not provided in a timely manner, it can lead to death.

The most dangerous are peanuts and almonds, but walnuts rarely cause problems.

Seafood and fish

The most common allergy to sea fish, river fish is safer. Moreover, sensitivity can be observed both to one type of fish, and to several, therefore, you need to think carefully about the diet.

By the way, red fish varieties are more dangerous in terms of allergies, but cod almost never causes allergies.

High-protein seafood is also dangerous - they contain both milk and egg whites, which doubles the danger.

Mustard

Many spices can cause allergic reactions. The plus is that most of them are not for sale in Russia or are very expensive - not everyone can afford them. But ordinary mustard may well cause unpleasant symptoms. Moreover, the allergy develops both when it is ingested, and in the case of inhalation of vapors, when it comes into contact with the skin.
