Food allergies are a disease caused by a defect in the response of the immune system, leading to a wide variety of symptoms and the most dangerous life-threatening allergic shock.
The disease is associated with a number of genetic, environmental and nutritional factors, and the diagnosis of food allergies depends on a set of procedures and tests most commonly the skin test and immunological tests.
As for treatment, there is no treatment for food allergies. All treatments are symptomatic. The only effective measure is the complete elimination of dietary stimulants from the diet and thus preventing allergic reaction. However, there are some drugs available to relieve or reduce symptoms. May be promising such as monoclonal antibody therapy.
There is no information on the prevalence of food allergies in Syria or other Arab countries, so this study was conducted to form an idea about the prevalence of food allergies, the most common foods and their associated symptoms, their genetic and environmental factors, and the medical diagnosis of cases. The result was a set of similarities and differences Be significant.
Food allergies have doubled over the past 20 years with a marked increase in the variety and severity of symptoms. Nearly 20% of the population believes that any adverse food interaction is a food allergy and therefore an assessment of dietary sensitivity requires increased awareness of people, although this does not solve the wrong understanding Repeatedly, all reactions to food are hypersensitive, and until the actual dietary sensitivity is properly diagnosed, the term "bad food interaction" is a universal term used for any undesirable food interaction and must therefore be confirmed.
The term bad food interaction includes food intolerance and food hypersensitivity.
