Workshop runs from 10.00am to 4.00pm

With Daphne Lambert
Food allergy is caused when the immune system misjudges a harmless protein, interpreting it as a threat. The immune system studies the perceived threat, called an allergen, and in preparation for any further exposure develops antibodies, special cells designed to detect it
You are now "sensitized" to the mistaken allergen. Then, the next time you're exposed to this allergen, your immune system jumps into action. The antibodies pick up the allergen and deliver it to white blood cells called mast cells, which trigger the release of chemicals like histamine inducing the allergic symptoms of sneezing, itching, swelling and rashes.
Food intolerance is the inability to break down food completely into absorbable components The unabsorbed food that remains in the digestive system causes the classic symptoms of bloating, cramps and mal-absorption
The fundamental difference is that an allergy is an immune response and intolerance is not, both however have serious health implications.
During the day as well as creating mouthwatering dishes that are gluten, dairy, soya, and egg free we will discuss some of the challenges people face who have allergies or intolerance to certain foods.
