Treatments for allergy syndromes in Monza and Milan

Food and environmental allergies

For the correct treatment of allergies and intolerances it is essential to distinguish the former from the latter: food allergies differ from food intolerances in that they involve the entire immune system and not the metabolism. The allergic episode is triggered by contact with a protein contained in the food eaten, such as beans, hazelnuts, cocoa, kiwi, asparagus, spinach and tomatoes, which are the most common. With the allergic reaction comes the release of histamine and other chemicals that cause typical food allergy symptoms such as itching, coughing and asthma. Food intolerance, on the other hand, is caused by a deficiency in the enzymes that break down particular substances, such as milk sugar.
