Question 1

what is the definition or description of: castor oil allergy?

Accepted Answer

Rare allergy: Castor oil can produce a variety of reaction such as an allergic contact dermatitis, that is the local reaction in the skin only. The exposure by mouth or inhalation has been reported as producing breathing problems like asthma and anaphylaxis.

Question 2

i'm just wondering, if you have a tropical fruit allergy is it typical to develop allergy to fresh string beans?

Accepted Answer

Food allergy : When you have a real food allergy, you have more risk of developing other allergies including different food. Tropical fruit and string beans should not cross react. It is rare to have fruit allergy since fruit is not very allergenic. Most of the time, it is due to cross reactivity with pollens. An allergist can help you tease out all of those questions.

Question 3

2y baby ate 1 tsp nutella containing soy lecithin and no allergy at all,this means no favism?don't 've to make sure with test? can safely eat beans?

Accepted Answer

About favism...: Surviving a meal of Nutella is not a test for favism (G6PD deficiency). The G6PD test is a simple blood test that any lab can do. The result is a percentage (for example:  20% would mean the person has only 20% of the G6PD that an average normal person has). If deficient, broad beans such as fava beans are a no-no. People may want to avoid other legumes and beans; some beans are worse than others.

Question 4

help please? how many castor beans will kill you?

Accepted Answer

If you are having: thoughts about killing yourself,  get seen at the nearest emergency room now. Have a friend or relative drive you or call 911 for emergency services for transport. You can call the National suicide hotlines 24/7 at 1-800-suicide (1-800-784-2433) or 1-800-273 – talk (1-800-273-8255) for support.

Question 5

what are some good recipes for somebody with bean and lentil allergies?

Accepted Answer

FAAN: A good resource is the food allergy & anaphylaxis network.

Question 6

my son has a fruit, veggie, and rye  food allergy. are beans and potato chips safe?

Accepted Answer

Wide categories: Beans and potatoes are vegetables, and you say your son has allergies to "veggies."  Do you mean ALL "veggies" or just specific ones?  (and fruits and rye, etc).  If you're not sure, please check with the physician who did the food allergy testing.

Question 7

how do i know if i have a bean allergy?

Accepted Answer

Symptoms with eating: Bean allergy is less common than other food allergies. Beans are legumes and include soy, peanut, kidney, lentil, string, green, etc.   Bean allergy can cause anaphylaxis.   The usual symptoms are hives, lip swelling, vomiting, diarrhea, difficulty breathing within hours after ingestion of beans. An allergist can assist in the diagnosis through allergy testing.

Question 8

please what are the derivatives of bean.i know a baby having allergy to bean and its derivatives,but what are the derivative if bean?

Accepted Answer

Processed products: Beans may be processed to be used as an ingredient in other food products and I presume that's what you mean by derivative.  Since the allergen usually remains, the reaction will likely be similar.

Example-  soy bean-&gt; tofu, soy milk.

Question 9

what to do if i have whole egg, wheat, cow's milk, cashew, almond, shellfish mix, legume mix and soya bean allergy and i am diabet?

Accepted Answer

Dietitian: I would highly recommend  dietary consult, to ensure that you can develop a non allergic, diabetes friendly diet that will supply your daily needs.
