Food sensitivity is a negative reaction to a food that may or may not be related to the immune system or to food poisoning.

Fast Facts:
- Symptoms of a food intolerance include gas, intermittent diarrhea, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, skin rashes, migraine headaches, and an unproductive cough.1
- Food chemicals such as preservatives, artificial colors and natural food salicylate, amine and glutamate should be avoided, so as not to trigger food sensitivity.2
- It can exist as a separate condition or contribute to the symptoms of complex syndromes such as chronic fatigue syndrome, and myalgic encephalomyelitis.3
