Understanding Food Allergies and Intolerance
Food allergies are a serious health concern; even a small trace of any allergen can cause a severe reaction in individuals who are allergic. Reactions can range from mild symptoms, such as itching and hives, to life-threatening anaphylactic shock.
On the other hand, food intolerance is generally less severe. Intolerance occurs when your body has difficulty digesting a particular type of food.
Symptoms, although they can cause discomfort and distress, tend not to be life-threatening. An intolerance can cause symptoms such as bloating, gas, diarrhoea, migraine, and coughing.
A common example is lactose intolerance, where the body struggles to digest lactose, the sugar found in milk and dairy products.
If you suffer from either a food allergy or intolerance, always read the label and pay close attention to product recalls. Your well-being matters, so always stay vigilant and remain informed.
