A member asked:
Is it possible for me to have an allergic reaction to chinese food?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Their are multiple food ingredients in chinese food that can trigger an allergic reaction. These include nuts, peanuts, shellfish, fish and less likely rice, pasta, and vegetable. Food preservatives are less likely to trigger a reaction. An allergist can assist in determining the exact cause of the reaction after eating.
