5 Common IgG Food Allergies
🤔Did you know that the food you're eating could be causing you health problems, and you might not even know it?
When people think of allergies, they tend to think of immediate reactions, such as throat swelling, rashes, and EpiPens, which are called IgE allergies. However, there is another type of allergic reaction in the body called IgG allergies, which can cause inflammation and far subtler symptoms.
IgG allergen symptoms include joint pain, mood swings, asthma, and acne, to name a few. IgG allergies are far more challenging to connect with the food trigger, as they show up as delayed responses.
Most of us are familiar with common allergies such as peanuts and shellfish, but there are other allergens that most people don't know to avoid. Let's look at a few...
🥛Milk and other dairy products, for example, are highly inflammatory foods that are also common allergens. Cheese, yogurt, and ice cream are clearly dairy products, but milk is also hidden in processed foods, such as artificial butter, casein, and lactalbumin.
🍞Baker's yeast and brewer's yeast are also prevalent food allergies found in bread, baked goods, and even soy sauce. Wheat is another very inflammatory food that is also a common allergen found in many foods like bread, pizza crust, crackers, noodles, and more.
🥚Eggs are another common allergen that can be found in baked goods, mayonnaise, pasta, and even some wines.
🧂Black or white pepper is also in virtually all processed foods and is one of the most common food allergies that patients experience.
All of these foods can cause inflammation in the body, leading to a range of symptoms, including fatigue, brain fog, and excess weight.
