Some people experience gastrointestinal or skin discomfort after eating a certain food, which is not an allergy, but a clinical “regret” that may also be a food intolerance. For the foodies, this regret is really too painful, is there a way to relieve? Half of the Chinese people are intolerant to milk. The symptoms of food intolerance are manifested in the digestive system, such as abdominal pain and diarrhea, and in the skin system, such as rash and itching. In addition to milk, some people get itchy red bumps after eating more frozen seafood. In addition, like chili peppers, leeks and other foods that contain their own irritants, can cause irritation of the gastrointestinal tract or diarrhea after consumption. But this diarrhea is not a bad thing to eat, nor is it caused by germs, it is just a bad tolerance produced by eating too much spicy stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract. In addition to eating, we often drink alcoholic beverages can also be intolerant. There are many people in life who are not very able to drink, and their faces will be red after a couple of sips, and some people even have red bodies. Alcohol molecules are very small and do not make people allergic. We have ethanol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase in our bodies, and the more developed these two enzymes are, the more alcohol a person can drink. But drink up to a certain point, all people will get drunk. “Being drunk is actually the pharmacological effect of alcohol.” Not the same thing as food allergy Even though there are some similarities in symptoms, food intolerance and food allergy are not the same thing, and the pathogenesis of the two is not the same. Food intolerance has nothing to do with the body’s immune system; it’s just an adverse reaction that occurs in the body. In the case of seafood, people who are truly allergic to even just a little bit of soup and a little bit of smell will have a big reaction in their body, and eating fresher ones will not work. The food intolerance is, in fact, as long as you eat fresh, just caught from the sea, live seafood, and then control the amount, most people will not be poorly tolerated. The reason for intolerance is often because the seafood is not fresh, the protein breakdown produces histamine, tyramine and some vasoactive amines, which make people feel itchy after eating. Also in terms of testing, people with food allergies can be treated by a doctor’s comprehensive judgment through medical history, skin tests, serum specific IgE tests, etc. Some hospitals and medical checkups claim that the specific IgG used to detect food can detect food intolerance and use it as a basis for patients to rotate or avoid food. The current food tolerance mechanism itself is unclear and differs from food to food. Foreign guidelines clearly state that food-specific IgG cannot be used to diagnose food intolerance, and this test is not recognized by the academic community. Currently, patients can only be judged based on their medical history, the clinical experience of their doctors, and the knowledge they have. Intolerance is not the same as not being able to eat at all. Is it true that foods that are not well tolerated by the body can never be touched for the rest of your life? This is not true. The reason why we often hear people say “I can’t eat this” or “I’m allergic” is that, on the one hand, the food does cause adverse reactions in the body, which is mainly due to the lack of mastery of the eating method or the amount; on the other hand, it is due to the misleading psychological beliefs of doctors and the self. Misinformation. Doctors who do not specialize in allergic reactions may tell patients to abstain from eating when diagnosing symptoms that are not strongly correlated. In turn, patients may subjectively believe that they cannot eat it when they consume it, causing physical discomfort by psychology. In fact, people who are uncomfortable when drinking milk can drink less or drink yogurt that is truly fermented and not a blended lactic acid drink. For those who like seafood, always remember to eat fresh and also to control the serving size. For food intolerance, unless you are seriously uncomfortable, you can just wait until the symptoms are eliminated and no special treatment is needed; if the symptoms are obvious or serious, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time. Just remember the food that makes you intolerant and don’t eat it or eat it less next time.
