Dry Goods Coming (No.33) Understand [Allergy] and [Intolerance]

Is what [intolerant]?

Food intolerance, It’s the food we eat, Because of the lack of relevant enzymes in the body, which cannot be fully digested and utilized, these undigested foods stimulate the body and lead to discomfort. Food intolerance is related to the dosage of food intake. Eat less and nothing will happen. The more you eat, the more severe the symptoms will be. If you find that children are like this, it is food intolerance. Then eat less next time.

Is what allergic?

Allergy refers to a reaction that occurs as long as the intake of food exceeds an upper limit (this upper limit is very low, basically it is enough for you to touch it). Ten more points are also the same reaction.

How to distinguish [intolerance] from [allergy]?

The most accurate judgment method is [avoidance-excitation test]:

If the child has allergic reaction after eating certain food; After that, stop taking this kind of food and the allergic reaction disappears. After that, if you ingest this kind of food again, you will have another allergic reaction. The intensity of the two allergic reactions can be different.

If you really did the above test inadvertently (that is, after avoiding food, you gave it to your child inadvertently), there is no danger of what, but there are allergic reactions in your child, then congratulations, your baby has been diagnosed with food allergy and can be determined without any other examination.

Can food allergy use poison to attack poison?

The idea is very good, but it is not recommended.

Insisting on giving children allergic food is equivalent to continuously stimulating children with a large amount of [drugs]. Instead of exercising the immune system, it will annoy him, causing the body to be in an allergic state all the time and the symptoms to be more serious.

This is like sprinkling salt on the wound. How is it possible to exercise the wound well? How can the wound be healed? Remove the salt to avoid further damage and give the wound time to heal. When the wound is completely healed, sprinkling salt will not hurt.

Why does my baby really adapt to eating?

Back above, the baby may be food intolerant.
