Food allergies can begin at any time in life with no warning. Most food allergies create the following symptoms: tingling of the mouth, lips, and tongue; itching and hives; swelling of the tongue and throat, and difficulty breathing. Anyone experiencing these symptoms should see a doctor.
The most common food allergens in Canada are milk, eggs, wheat, crustaceans and mollusks, fish, mustard, peanuts, sesame, soy, sulfites, tree nuts, and wheat and triticale. There are more official allergens in Canada than in the United States. Anyone who is allergic to these ingredients should always read labels to see that the product is safe before they eat it. And be sure to follow food recall notices carefully in case a food or product is recalled.
