2010-08-21 Ed Blonz: Can new food allergies emerge - San Jose Mercury News

There is a difference between food allergy and an adverse reaction, the latter being a general term for any time you react in an undesirable way. All allergies are adverse reactions, but not all adverse reactions are allergies. Adverse reactions to food often get mislabeled as allergies. Lactose intolerance, a reduced ability to digest the carbohydrate found in milk products, is a classic example of an adverse reaction that is not an allergy. People sensitive to preservatives, the flavor enhancer monosodium glutamate (MSG), food coloring and sulfites in wine often react in a way that resembles a food allergy. For these people, the only practical remedy is to switch to foods that dont contain these additives.
