Food allergy is a rather fast response (minutes) by the body’s immune system to a perceived invader. Signs or symptoms are typically immediate, dramatic and visible: coughing, sneezing, vomiting, migraines, watering eyes, rashes, swelling tissue, hives while the food intolerance on the other hand is rather slow onset reaction, hours, days or even weeks. It is an inability to process a particular food.

Very interesting article and it is important to distinguish between food allergy and food intloerance. But also note that allergies can arise from substances in the air which could include minute food particles and this needs to be considered when doing the 'detective' work as to what is causing the allergy i.e it is not necessarily what is going into your mouth that is causing the problem .-= AllaGee@ Best Air Purifiers´s last blog ..Allergies and Asthma: What’s the Connection? =-.

That’s very interesting. I never knew why some people could be allergic to foods, but that totally makes sense.

Food intolerance usually causes “digestive irregularities”. Allergies usually cause sneezing and stuffy noses and then redness in the skin. Every case should be checked out by a doctor. Self diagnosis does not rule out diseases which mimic these symptoms.
