Ten Most Common Food Allergies

Food allergies should not be confused with intolerance for certain food items. Lactose intolerance is caused by a scarcity of the enzyme lactase and can lead to bloating and digestive problems. Whereas,  a milk allergy can cause severe immediate or delayed reactions, whenever a food item containing milk in any form is consumed. Allergies which occur in childhood often go away after a certain length of time, but adult allergies normally remain through a lifetime.
The most common food Allergies are as follows:



1. Shellfish







2. Peanuts





3. Tree Nuts





4. Fish





5. Eggs





6. Soy





7. Wheat





8. Milk





9. Sugar





10. Garlic
