When someone has a prominent, severe food allergy, they are normally diagnosed at a very young age. Often allergies like these, such as an allergy to peanuts or gluten, presents itself in the toddler years when a child is being introduced to new foods besides breast milk or formula.
When detected it is best to try a specialty diet to see how it will react with your body. If the suggestion comes up for a gluten free diet, you will start seeing so many options available that you did not see before. You will being reading more of the labels and you will be more aware of what is available and what you can have to help with your gluten free diet.

As the previous section explained, these food allergies are very detectable. Normally the symptoms present themselves within minutes or hours of eating the offending allergen. People with severe food allergies are aware of their allergies and often carry lifesaving medication with them in case they come into contact with their allergen.
However, hidden food allergies are much harder to detect. Many times allergic reactions to foods that are eaten can have a delayed response in the body. This leads to a series of mysterious symptoms that, until the food allergies are discovered, seem to make no sense to the sufferer or the doctor. People fail to make the connection between their symptoms and the foods that they eat. As a result, these symptoms go on unrecognized and untreated for years.
