Detailed explanation-1: -Food intolerance is a broad term that is used to describe a wide range of adverse reactions to foods, that cause symptoms after eating some foods. These include stomach pain, bloating, gas/flatulence, diarrhoea, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), rashes, hives (urticaria), recurrent mouth ulcers or headaches.
Detailed explanation-2: -The most common allergies include shellfish such as shrimp, lobster, and crab; peanuts; tree nuts, such as walnuts and pecans; fish; and eggs. Food allergies do not affect digestion; digestion affects food allergies. A food allergy is simply a lack of digestion.
Detailed explanation-3: -Food hypersensitivity is used to refer broadly to both food intolerances and food allergies. Food allergies are immune reactions, typically an IgE reaction caused by the release of histamine but also encompassing non-IgE immune responses.
