Egg Allergies

may or may not be allergic to eggs from other animals.

Eggs are very nutritional and are used for making so many foods they can be very
hard to avoid. Thankfully many grocery stores now carry egg free solutions. Even if
baking at home, baking with out eggs can be easily accomplished with some
experimentation. Substitutes must be made depending on what the eggs purpose is
in a specific recipe. Eggs can be used as a liquid, binder or agent, egg re-placers are
also available in most stores. Using eggs as a liquid in a recipe is the easiest to
replace the others may require a little more creativity.

In rare cases egg allergies can occur from just inhaling fumes from eggs being
cooked but egg allergy symptoms can occur within minutes after ingestion or after a
few hours. People may also experience egg allergy symptoms when eating raw or
soft boiled eggs but may be able to eat hard boiled eggs. This happens due to the
fact that when the egg changes state so do the proteins.

When taking eggs out of your diet it is essential to replace all the great nutrients
found in eggs with another source.

Eggs contain amino acids, vitamin A, Vitamin B6 & B12, Iron and other essentials.

Eggs are one of the high risk foods
when it comes to allergies especially
in children. Many children will grow
out of their egg allergies and egg
allergy symptoms but until then a
great deal of caution is needed. Egg
allergies are usually caused by the
proteins in eggs so it can be difficult
to figure out just which one is the
culprit. Added to this is the fact the
allergies can be caused by egg whites
or egg yolks and since it is often
difficult to separate the two
completely, people with severe
allergies may need to avoid both. A
