Even a tiny amount of allergy-causing food can trigger signs and symptoms such as digestive problems, hives, or swollen airways. A food allergy can cause severe symptoms and even life-threatening reactions (anaphylaxis) in some people.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kh\u00f4ng dung n\u1ea1p th\u1ef1c ph\u1ea9m<\/strong> is a less severe condition involving a reaction from the digestive system (usually 2 to 72 hrs after ingesting the offending food), not being able to properly digest (or break down) certain foods or substance(s)\/ingredient(s) in particular foods, often because of enzyme deficiency. Food intolerance or food sensitivity is commonly caused by a \u201cleaky gut\u201d or impermeability. Potential symptoms include lethargy, headaches and trouble concentrating, joint pain, frequent gas, bloating, indigestion, skin issues, depression or anxiety, and increased susceptibility to catching colds and viruses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>COMMON FOOD SENSITIVITIES INCLUDE<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong> Lactose:<\/strong> People who are lactose intolerant do not make enough lactase enzyme to break down lactose, a sugar found in milk and dairy products. This food intolerance is the most common.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Histamine:<\/strong> People who are histamine intolerant do not make enough diamine oxidase enzyme to break down histamine, a naturally occurring chemical in foods like cheese, pineapples, bananas, avocados and chocolate. Red wine and some white wines also have histamines.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gluten:<\/strong> Gluten is a protein in wheat, rye and barley. Gluten sensitivity isn\u2019t the same as having celiac disease, an autoimmune disease. When one has celiac disease, gluten damages the small intestines. If one has a non-celiac gluten sensitivity, the body has a harder time digesting gluten.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3925 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-scaled-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/en.rafflesmedical.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/man-cooking-fresh-vegetables-pan-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF FOOD INTOLERANCE?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The reaction occurs from two to 72 hours after ingesting the offending food.<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s triggered by food eaten frequently and often in larger quantities.<\/li>\n<li>It frequently involves four, five or even more types of food.<\/li>\n<li>Although the symptoms tend to be low grade, the problem is often chronic, recurrent and associated with inflammation in multiple organ systems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>WHY FOOD INTOLERANCE TEST?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Food intolerances tend to be lifelong.<\/strong> Most people can manage symptoms if they reduce or cut out foods that cause digestive problems. Food intolerance may be an inconvenience (and the symptoms unpleasant). When food particles enter the bloodstream, your immune system can sometimes identify these food proteins as \u2018foreign\u2019 and produces IgG antibodies to \u2018attack\u2019 the particular food in question. This response is the immune system\u2019s natural defence mechanism to ward off harmful invaders in the body, which can create inflammation. This inflammation can trigger troublesome symptoms, which may persist if neglected.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WHEN SHOULD I CALL THE DOCTOR?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ng\u01b0\u1eddi b\u1ec7nh c\u1ea7n \u0111i kh\u00e1m khi g\u1eb7p c\u00e1c tri\u1ec7u ch\u1ee9ng nh\u01b0 \u0111au b\u1ee5ng d\u1eef d\u1ed9i, ti\u00eau ch\u1ea3y, n\u00f4n \u00f3i hay c\u00e1c ph\u1ea3n \u1ee9ng nghi\u00eam tr\u1ecdng kh\u00e1c v\u00e0 s\u1ee5t c\u00e2n kh\u00f4ng r\u00f5 nguy\u00ean nh\u00e2n.<\/p>\n<p>If you suspect you or your family member is suffering from a food allergy or food intolerance, please call our Reception to book an appointment at Raffles Medical for assessment and test(s).<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hanoi: (024) 3934 0666 | frontdesk_hanoi@rafflesmedical.com<\/li>\n<li>HCMC:(028) 3824 0777 | frontdesk_hcmc@rafflesmedical.com<\/li>\n<li>Vung Tau: (0254) 385 8776 | frontdesk_vungtau@rafflesmedical.com<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHILE FOOD ALLERGIES AND INTOLERANCE CAN LOOK ALIKE, HOW DO YOU TELL THE TWO APART?
