Dangerous Foods


1) Peanuts: 
  The body reacts to the proteins that peanuts contain. These can cause rashes, swelling and trouble breathing. 

2) Milk and Dairy Foods: 
   Milk is one of the most common food allergy trigger for humans. Infants specifically need hypoallergic or soy formula

3) Eggs:
    Watch out for eggs in noodles, mayonnaise and baked goods. They can also be in unlikely places such as in the foam topping in drinks and in the egg wash on pretzels.

4) Shellfish:
   Shrimp, crab, crawfish, lobster, clams, mussels, scallops, escargot, octopuses can cause serious reactions.

5) Tree nuts:
   Watch out for walnuts, almonds, pecans, hazelnuts, cashews, pistachios, Brazil nuts and pine nuts that can be highly allergic.

6) Fish:
   Fresh salmon, tuna and halibut can cause severe allergies. 

7) Soy:
   Foods to avoid involve edamame, tofu, soy milk, miso and soy sauce.

8) Wheat:
   If you are allergic to wheat, other grains, like barley, oats, rye, corn and rice are usually safe. But you may want to avoid bulgur, couscous and farina.
