Deep dives
Food allergy, food intolerance, and food sensitivity
Food allergy is caused by IgE antibodies and results in immediate reactions after eating a food. Symptoms include hives, swelling, vomiting, and even anaphylaxis. Intolerances do not involve the immune system and are related to difficulty digesting certain substances, such as lactose intolerance. Food sensitivities lack a clear medical definition and are often attributed to non-immunologic adverse effects from eating certain foods.
