The Critical Difference Between Food Allergies and Food Sensitivities
In this first reel from our session “Benefits of Food Sensitivity & Gut Barrier Testing and Interpretation” with James White, he clears up one of the biggest misconceptions: allergies vs. sensitivities.
👉 Food allergies (IgE response) trigger immediate and often severe reactions, like anaphylaxis.
👉 Food sensitivities are also immune-related, but the reaction is delayed—sometimes up to 72 hours—making them much harder to track.That’s why so many people struggle to connect symptoms (like bloating, fatigue, or skin flare-ups) to what they’ve eaten days earlier.
💡 James explains why understanding this distinction is key to uncovering hidden triggers and improving long-term health.
⬇️ Watch the clip to see how delayed reactions can make food sensitivities tricky to spot.
