Peanut Allergy

RSS Feeds   Text 
Peanuts are the most common allergy causing foods and they often are found in food items that we may overlook.

Though technically peanut is not actually a “nut” but a legume, still people allergic to peanuts can exhibit similar allergic reactions to other tree nuts such as walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, pecans, pistachios, and cashews. The proteins found in the peanuts are similar in structure to those found in other tree nuts.

Cross Reaction: Since peanuts are a part of legume family, so if someone is allergic to peanuts, possibility is, he might be allergic to peas, lima beans, soybeans, and lentils too.

Hidden Sources: Some Oriental Sauces, Candy, Chocolate, Sunflower Seeds, Peanut Flour, Nut Butters, and Thai Dishes.

Other Names: Arachis Oil, Beer Nuts, Ground Nut, Kernels, Nut Meat.
