Today, it seems more than ever, that people have allergies to certain foods. Eating foods that a person has an allergy to can cause many different symptoms. Some of the symptoms may be very mild while others can be severe or even death. If you have a food allergy, access to allergy free foods or recipes can make life much more enjoyable.
Many people are discovering that they are allergic to gluten. Gluten is found in wheat and several other grains. It helps bread to be fluffy and soft. The product is so common that many persons who have this allergy find it difficult to eat outside the home and must prepare their own meals.
A lactose allergy means that the person is allergic to many dairy products. If the person drinks milk or consumes lactose containing dairy products the result may be very severe gastric problems. Today you will find many substitutes that can be exchanged for normal dairy products.
In small children, a nut allergy can be very frightening. The allergy can cause swelling that in the airways that can cause death. Persons with a nut allergy may need to avoid eating foods that are processed in the same kitchens that process nuts. A mild nut allergy can cause a upset stomach.
If you are allergic to eggs, you will need recipes that are modified to use something other than eggs. In addition, you should tell your doctor before taking any injection as some medications are stored in the albumen of eggs. There are many recipes that allow you to cook your food without using eggs in the recipe.
Persons may also have allergies to less common foods. Most of these allergies are accommodated by avoiding the foods that is the source of the allergy. For example, persons allergic to shellfish, should avoid eating clams.
Final Thoughts
If your food allergies are for more than one of the foods commonly used in preparing meals, your task becomes more difficult.
