What is wheat allergy?

Here you will learn more about wheat allergy and wheat intolerance, their symptoms and diagnosis, and what the best treatment is for both adults and children.

Wheat allergy is an allergic reaction to foods containing wheat. The allergic reaction can be caused by eating wheat and also, in some cases, by inhaling wheat flour. In contrast to a grass allergy, it is not the wheat pollen that triggers the allergic reaction, but rather the proteins in the wheat.
