View AllSigns and Symptoms of a food allergic reaction
Signs and symptoms of a food allergy usually occur soon after eating the food or within two hours of eating. Allergic reactions to food can be mild, moderate or severe.
An allergic reaction may start with mild or moderate signs or symptoms but can progress rapidly to anaphylaxis. However, it is important to remember that signs of a mild or moderate allergic reaction may not always occur before anaphylaxis.

Being diagnosed or living with allergies is challenging.
We are always grateful for people who take the time to share their stories with us so others don’t feel so alone.
Currently there are 1 in 10 infants, 1 in 20 children and 1 in 50 adults living with severe allergy.
Like you, at Allergy & Anaphylaxis Australia (A&AA) we believe that people with allergic disease and at risk of anaphylaxis deserve to live their best life.
