Soy allergy is an immune system response to soy protein that the body mistakenly believes is harmful. Once the immune system decides that soy protein is harmful, it creates specific antibodies to it. The next time the individual eats soy, the immune system releases massive amounts of chemicals, including histamine, in order to protect the body. These chemicals trigger a cascade of allergic symptoms that can affect the respiratory system, gastrointestinal tract, skin, or cardiovascular system. The symptoms of soy allergy will only occur upon re-exposure to soy. Not all soy products may cause soy allergy. Some fermented soy foods such as tempeh, shoyu and miso cause less allergy than whole soybeans, because the fermentation process partly breaks down the proteins. Only 0.5 of the population has soy allergy. Other foods that often cause allergy in adults are shellfish, peanuts (can cause severe anaphylaxis), nuts, fish and eggs.
