A New Study Says Food Allergies Are Mostly Mental

In a recent study they found that out of the 20 percent of Americans say that they have food allergies or sensitivities only about 3 or 4 percent really do have a food allergy. I will explain if you are on a medication that has a reaction to lets say strawberries but you are unaware of this. Then when you eat a strawberry and you vomit it does not mean you are allergic but it means that your body is reacting to the strawberry’s effect to the medicine in your body. With that being said according to the study for most Americans that say that they are allergic to a type of food doctors found that if you look at their diet, medication, or lifestyle is why their body is reacting to the food so we are lead to think we are allergic when we really are not.
