Food Allergies and Sensitivities
Food allergies and sensitivities can both have an impact on digestive health, but they differ in terms of their underlying mechanisms and the severity of their reactions.
A food allergy involves the immune system’s unusual reaction to specific foods, often triggered by even tiny amounts. The antibody responsible for this response is called IgE.
On the other hand, food sensitivities or intolerances do not primarily involve the immune system and are typically not life-threatening.
