10 Food Allergy Symptoms
2. Cough
Coughing is a normal defense mechanism of the body. It is described as a forceful clearing out of the airways in response to certain particles that might cause irritation or obstruction of the respiratory tract. During a respiratory tract infection, coughing is a useful mechanism to clear out the excess mucus being produced. Other conditions as allergies and asthma are also common causes of a cough.
People with food allergies tend to experience many respiratory symptoms. As the immune reaction takes place, the airway tightens and the body starts coughing in an attempt to get rid of the causing agent.
