Great Information!

I came across this article on food allergies versus food intolerance. I get a lot of questions about the difference between these two concepts. They are very different and it is important to understand the difference and use the terms correctly. Some of the symptoms of an allergy overlap with those of an intolerance so distinguishing between the two may be diffcult. This is why consulting an allergist is so important!
