Wheat Allergies
A wheat allergy is triggered by one of the proteins in wheat. Children are at the highest risk, but most of them tend to overgrow the problem before 10 years old. This form can lead to some typical symptoms like swelling, rashes, vomiting, hives, or digestive distress. Many often confuse it with non-celiac gluten sensitivity or celiac disease because they have similar digestive signs. People with this condition need to stay away from wheat. They can still eat gluten from other grains as long as they do not contain wheat. Skin prick testing is usually used to diagnose a wheat allergy.[7]
