Cross-reactivity (allergy)as trigger       06/24/08 01:02 PM Edit Reply Quote Fia Reged: 07/21/03 Posts: 56 Loc: Sweden Has anyone heard of Cross-reactivity (The immune system may react to foods or plants in the same botanical family. For example a person allergic to birch pollen will often get symptoms from eating fresh apples, tomatoes and other fruits.) as a trigger for IBS. I have a feeling that i get worse a few weeks every spring and I did some research on the internet. I found one study that concluded that people with pollen allegy got IBS like symtoms when eating fruits/vegetables known to cross react with pollen. What do you think? Am I on to something?
