Food Intolerance vs Food Allergy

The majority of food reactions are caused by a food intolerance (also known as food sensitivity).

The onset of food intolerance symptoms may be delayed and the response may last for up to 48 hours thus food intolerance is difficult to self-diagnose. Food intolerance involves IgG antibodies and will not be picked up via skin prick tests as these are designed for IgE mediated reactions (allergy).

A food allergy occurs when the body’s immune system responds to otherwise benign proteins (allergens) as though they are threats to the system. The response is generally immediate after ingestion of the food (or within 2 hours).

In a classic reaction, the immune system produces IgE antibodies and when these react with the allergen allergic symptoms appear such as itching, swelling, hives & breathing difficulties. Although usually mild, allergic reactions can be very serious.

Symptoms & Conditions commonly involving Food Intolerance:

    • Digestive System: bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, gastritis, IBS, IBD, malabsorption, weight control problems and water retention.

 

    • Skin: red, itchy rashes and dermatitis.

 

    • Nervous System: fatigue, anxiety, headaches, migraine, insomnia and sleep disturbance.

 

    • Respiratory System: chronic congestion, asthma and sinusitis.
