Filed Under Food Allergy | Leave a Comment

Soya allergy is a common childhood allergy. Most children with a soya allergy outgrow it by two years ago. However, there are some who has a life long condition with soya allergy. For those with a , avoidance of several types of manufactured foods containing soya such as baked biscuits, sweets, drinks, ice cream and various seasonings, is advised.

Unfortunately, soya may be described in a variety of ways by manufacturers in food labelling. For instance, soya can be described as hydrolyzed vegetable protein, vegetable oil and lecithin. Hence it pays to be aware of these other food labellings.

Manufacturers often use soya flour to increase the shelf life and to improve the color of pastry crusts. Textured soya protein, which is sometimes known as textured vegetable protein, is made from compressed soya flour. It is used to improve the consistency of meat food products.

Refined soya oil should generally be safe if you have a soya allergy, since the proteins that cause allergic reactions are removed during processing.

Symptoms of include rashes, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach cramps and breathing difficulties. Some people with soya allergy might also react to milk. Very rarely, soya allergy reactions are often mild but they can cause anaphylaxis.

Very often, those who have a milk allergy, turn to soya milk instead. This is often the case with young children and highly hydrolyzed milk or casein formulas are often consumed as alternatives. However, it is advisable to check with the doctor about possible soya allergy as it is not necessarily true that your child will not have a soya allergy as well.

If you have a soya allergy, you may also react to foods such as peanuts, green peas, chickpeas, rye and barley flour. So do take note of any adverse reactions!
