How to tell if you have a food allergy, according to a nutritionist

Food allergies affect an estimated 8% of children in the U.S., according to the CDC. Food allergy symptoms are most common in babies and children, but they can appear at any age. Dr. Daryl Gioffre, nutritionist and gut health expert, joins CBS News to discuss the signs of a food allergy and the treatments available.

It took me a long time to figure out that I am allergic to soy and soybean oil. It's too bad they put it in everything though.

This is very informative.
I would be scared to eat anything outside my home if I had a food allergy.

I've lost 15 years of my life, suffered so much physically mentally and financially because nobody ever figured out that I have a dairy sensitivity/allergy which I would have maybe never found out about if not for carnivore diet. Thousands and thousands of dollars on physiotherapists, doctors, charlatans and supplements all in vain, for my chronic body pains, I felt like a 90yrs old person despite being in my twenties.

The irony is that only the wealthy can really evade all foods that may cause issues. If you're poor, yer lucky just to have SOMEthing to eat. As in, if you're on a ridiculously thin budget. The chemicals, additives, fillers, hidden carcinogenic crap, and whatever else that goes into packaged products can wreak havoc... but if you ain't rich, sometimes, you ain't got a choice. 😕

⁠If this is a sensitivity or allergy, I’m not sure yet. I’ve just started to have a problem with peaches from my peach tea, I believe. I’m having arthritis like pains all over and it’s making it too painful to lift my arm or straighten my hand out sometimes.
I believe it’s because I was tested years ago and they said I was allergic to grass.
I just found out online about PFAS, and I think I might have that.
It makes a lot of sense because when you are allergic to grass, then you become allergic to certain fruits that have grass pollen, like peaches and oranges.
I started having a problem with oranges a long time ago. I will miss peaches more though. 😢
I already had to give up Earl Grey tea many years ago because of Bergamot.
Earl Grey or Peach black teas are the best. 😢
I’ve been getting sick from strawberries too. I guess there won’t be much fruit left that I can eat soon.😢
Mango tea made me have pain, but I don’t really care for mangos.

If I ever have kids, then I will teach them that, as long as the person who has allergies/sensitivities is able to understand that if they're not sure whether or not a certain food or drink contains one of their allergens, then it's probably not a good idea to consume it (or that they should at least ask about it), and the person is able to be around somebody else who has said food or drink without having a reaction, then it is actually more selfish of the other person to expect my kid not to consume it right in front of them, than it is for my kid to consume it in front of them. However, if the other person is not able to understand that they shouldn't consume any food or drink they are not sure about (or that they should at least ask about it), and/or the person's allergy is to the point where they aren't even able to be around others who have the food without having a physical reaction, then it would actually be more selfish for my kid to consume said food or drink in front of that person, than it would be for the other person to expect my kid not to consume it in front of them.

It also cause cough.... if I eat any kinds of nuts, greenpeas/anypeas and sesame also. So I avoid to eat them.

This guy is a chiropractor, Reiki Master, and certified raw food chef. But *_not a doctor (MD, DO, or PhD) nor an actual dietician_* the latter having more formal education than a nutritionist. Yet he's talking about children & allergies? 😂 Way to go, CBS! 🤦

So would a migraine triggered by a food source be considered a sensitivity? Aspartame is my biggest migraine trigger.
