Can food your allergic to kill you?

I am a long-time sufferer of food allergies, and it is amazing what they can do to you. In general, having a food allergy means that when you eat the food you are allergic to, you get sick in some way. However, different foods effect different people in many different ways. Stomachaches and gas problems are very common with food allergies. If you keep on eating what you are allergic to, this may seem like a chronic condition. It may not sound like much, but it is very uncomfortable. Intestinal problems are also common with food allergies. However, there are other effects which may not be so well-known. Food allergies can make you feel extremely tired all the time. They can make you constantly lose your focus and cncentration. You won't be able to think quite right. You can get headaches almost all the time, and for girls, it can make your period be extremely painful. There are many other side effects as well, but listing them all out could take a lot of time. I suggest that if you have food allergies, you get a blood test done to figure out what you are allergic to. Once you pull food out of your diet it could take up to two months to start feeling better. So the sooner you get started, the sooner you'll feel better.


Why do people have eczema?

We don't know why each person has eczema. I think it could be different reasons for different people. With that said, it is likely there is a cause. For some it is food allergies, for others, it might be something else. Don't believe someone if they tell you there isn't a cause. Keep seeking answers and you may find them. With our son, food allergies are the main cause. He had really bad eczema and once we eliminated foods he was allergic to, it cleared up 90%.
