Food is essential for life, but allergic patients react to some foodstuffs. The most frequent allergenic foods vary depending on the age of the patient. What is interesting is that in contrast to what is usually thought, natural foodstuffs are much more often responsible for an allergy rather than chemical substances such as additives.

The most frequent allergenic foods:

• Egg
• Cow’s milk
• Fish
• Seafood
• Nuts and seeds
• Legumes (incl. peanuts)
• Fruits
• Vegetables
• Cereals and grains
• Meat
