Allergic To Peanuts? Watch Out For These Foods Too

For a new French study published in the journal Pediatric Allergy and Immunology, kids with peanut allergies took skin-prick or antibody tests for other legumes, including broad beans, chickpeas, fenugreek, lentils, lupin beans, peas and soybeans. The tests showed that 64% of the subjects were allergic to at least one of these foods. While positive allergy test results don't always translate into real-life symptoms, people who react to peanuts might want to be careful about consuming other legumes too.
