    A food allergy is an exaggerated immune response to a specific food (commonly eggs, milk, peanuts, or shellfish), resulting in symptoms such as hives, wheezing, trouble swallowing, feeling faint, or gastrointestinal distress. In severe cases, anaphylaxis can occur.

    Food Allergy falls under the Immunity & Infectious Disease category.
