artist Li Qianna recently received a body allergen test and found that in addition to common allergic foods such as shrimp and milk, even chicken, beef, bananas, apples, and guavas Don’t eat common foods such as, tofu! Caused a heated discussion among netizens. In an interview with the Cofit Nutrition Team, Dr. Song Yanren said that allergies can be divided into two types, one is acute allergies with immediate life-threatening, and the other is chronic allergies. Li Qianna should be doing chronic allergy testing.
Because acute allergies are caused by IgE antibodies in the body, it usually occurs immediately after exposure to antigens. Reactions may include swelling of the throat, causing dyspnea, abdominal distension, stomach or abdominal pain, wheezing, urticaria, sudden diarrhea or dyspnea, and other acute symptoms . As long as you avoid allergens, such as peanuts and other nuts and pollen, you can improve your allergies.
As for chronic allergies, it is actually difficult to detect because of slow onset and complex symptoms. Symptoms such as long-term fatigue, inexplicable headaches, intestinal sensitivity, joint pain, urticaria, eczema, etc., may all originate from IgG-mediated allergic reactions. Physician Song Yanren appealed that if people undergo IgG antibody allergen testing and find that the concentration of certain foods is high, they don’t need to worry about allergies and dare not eat them.

To confirm whether a certain food allergy is determined, IgE testing and skin and food provocation tests are required to confirm whether it is an allergen. If the concentration of IgG alone is high, it may have a great relationship with the current intestinal flora. Fang Qingyi, director of nutrition at Cofit, said that we may eat foods that are not suitable for our bodies because we do not understand our physique and the causes of allergies.
Fang Qingyi called on the health of the intestines to be very important. Taking good care of the intestinal bacteria can not only reduce inflammation, but also help cultivate a lean body. As for how to maintain good bacteria, Fang Qingyi urged that more vegetables, fruits, fiber, and high-quality protein should be consumed, and try to stay away from high sugar or bad fats, so as not to disrupt the healthy balance of intestinal flora, leading to obesity, allergies, The occurrence of diseases such as insomnia and depression.
