Allergies- Oral Allergy Syndrome

7:19 PM Jackie Mart 0 Comments


Many people with seasonal allergies are affected by oral allergy syndrome, which can cause an itchy or prickling feeling in your mouth after eating certain foods. Essentially, the same immune reaction that occurs when we breathe in pollen can happen when we eat foods that mimic that pollen.  

 The Fix: If you think you may have oral allergy syndrome, try avoiding the foods that can cross-react with your specific allergy. 

 Birch: Kiwi, apples, pears, peaches, cherries, carrots, hazelnuts and almonds.

 Grass: peaches, celery, tomatoes, melons and oranges.

 Latex: bananas, avocado, kiwi and papaya

 Ragweed: bananas, honeydew, cantaloupe, watermelons and tomatoes.

 I also offer a blood allergy test called the ALCAT where you can test various foods, herbs, food additives, preservatives, pharmaceuticals, molds, and etc. Please contact me if you would like more info! 712.790.5883
