food intolerances: If by food intolerances you mean 'adverse reactions to foods that are not caused by allergic antibodies' then the answer is unknown. There are many persons who report that certain foods reproducibly cause a myriad of unusual reactions however, the mechanism by which these foods cause problems remains a mystery to the medical world. Some physician's believe this to be lymphocyte-mediated reactions.
