What is Allergy To Peanuts?

Peanut allergy is one of the most common causes of severe allergies. It may pose major health risks, especially in children. According to researchers, the rise of peanut allergy cases in children is due to their exposure to peanut allergens that are found in the breast milk of lactating mothers during their early phases of life. Allergy to peanuts is difficult to diagnose as symptoms often vary across individuals. Nonetheless, this allergy is one of the most dangerous allergies as it is potentially life-threatening, causing anaphylaxis, a spontaneous and fatal condition that requires immediate medical attention. For some people with peanut allergy, even tiny amounts of peanuts can cause a serious reaction.

How It Affects Your Body

People who are allergic to peanuts can trigger an allergic reaction through eating food products containing peanut or inhaling airborne food particles with peanut proteins. This may result in skin rashes, drop in blood pressure and anxiety.

Signs and Symptoms

Age

Peanut allergies are most common in infants and toddlers because of their immature digestive systems.

Other Allergies

Children with other food or environmental allergies are at an increased risk for peanut allergies.

Eczema History

A link between atopic dermatitis and food allergies is often noted.

Family History

Children with close family members who have a history of food allergies (especially peanut or egg) are at increased risk for a peanut allergy.

Suggested Lifestyle Changes

Dietary Recommendations:

  1. Early introduction of peanut products (peanut butter), with the hope of reducing the prevalence of peanut allergies, is recommended for children without known peanut allergy.
  2. If known to trigger allergy reactions, avoid peanut and peanut-derived products.

Lifestyle Recommendations:

  1. Familiarise yourself with signs and symptoms of a peanut allergy. Seek immediate medical attention if necessary.
  2. If there are any known past allergic events, read labels for peanut or peanut-derived ingredients to avoid accidental exposure or intake of peanut allergens.
  3. Notify the restaurant about your allergy and educate them about the consequences of peanut allergy to avoid accidental exposure to any peanut or peanut-derived ingredients contained in your dish.
