What foods should people with allergies eat?

There is no universal "recommended food list" for people with allergies. The core premise is to completely avoid foods that you are clearly allergic to. On top of that, give priority to foods that you have eaten before and are confirmed to be okay, hypoallergenic and have anti-inflammatory properties.

A while ago, I accompanied a friend to the allergist department for a follow-up visit. I met a girl who was allergic to peach hairs and mangoes. I had previously been told that people with allergies should eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to supplement vitamin C. For three days in a row, I ate peaches with skins on and ate mango pandanus. I developed hives and half of my face was swollen. When I came to the hospital, I was still talking about how other people who ate it worked but she had an accident.

In fact, if you have just been diagnosed with allergies and are still unclear about your dietary boundaries, you can start with foods that are generally very low-allergenic to the general public, such as skinless chicken breasts and duck meat, fully cooked green leafy vegetables such as spinach and lettuce, and low-G foods such as millet and quinoa. I. Miscellaneous grains. Most people with allergies eat them without any burden. The B vitamins and dietary fiber in these foods can also help regulate the immune state, which is equivalent to "putting on the brakes" on the overly sensitive body defense system and will not trigger alarm stress at every turn.

There are two opinions on the Internet that are very quarrelsome. One side says that if you are allergic, you need to take more probiotics and eat more vitamin C to desensitize it. The other side says that these will aggravate the allergy. In fact, both of them are right and wrong. If you are allergic to dairy products and choose probiotics with milk base, eating them will of course aggravate the symptoms.； If you happen to be allergic to citrus, you are asking for trouble by eating oranges to supplement vitamin C. All recommendations must be based on "you are not allergic to this food." Other people's experience can only be used as a reference. If you copy it, you will most likely be in trouble.

My best friend's child was allergic to eggs and milk when she was a child. At that time, she didn't even dare to add lactose-containing condiments when cooking. She usually ate pumpkin, yam, and steamed sea bass. Every time she added new food, she would first give her a fingernail-sized portion to try. She only dared to eat it for three days without any rashes or diarrhea. Now that her child's immunity has gradually stabilized in elementary school, she couldn't touch the yogurt before, but now it's okay to drink half a cup occasionally.

To be honest, don't expect that eating a certain food can cure your allergies. Food can at most help you reduce the frequency of allergic attacks. If you really have a sudden rash all over your body and can't breathe, don't hold it in and see a doctor quickly.
