Food allergy is the reaction of the immune system of the body that occurs after consuming specific foods. During specific physiological ages of pregnancy, women are more prone to different allergic reactions and mostly these reactions may prolong and have long-term effects. The hypersensitivity of different types of allergens is mainly linked with the adversity of reactions. The chances of suffering food allergies in women are greater than in men; women are usually more prone to get allergic to some foods during their specific physiological age of pregnancy. Food allergies are more common in pregnant women as every fifth pregnant woman is affected by some kind of allergy. The specific reasons and evidence of the causes of these food allergies during pregnancies have yet to be explored. A pregnant woman should take a balanced diet and avoid consuming known allergic foods to minimize the risk and complications. This review aimed to broaden the knowledge on food allergies during pregnancies, their onset in the babies, and to make it easy for pregnant women to cope with the complications caused by these food allergies. It also aimed to figure out the certain food that might be responsible for the onset of allergies in women during pregnancy and the effect of these allergies on their babies.
食物过敏是身体免疫系统在食用特定食物后发生的反应。在怀孕的特定生理阶段，女性更容易出现不同的过敏反应，而且这些反应大多可能会持续并产生长期影响。不同类型过敏原的超敏反应主要与反应的严重程度相关。女性患食物过敏的几率高于男性；在怀孕的特定生理阶段，女性通常更容易对某些食物过敏。食物过敏在孕妇中更为常见，每五名孕妇中就有一人受到某种过敏的影响。孕期这些食物过敏的具体原因和证据还有待探索。孕妇应保持均衡饮食，避免食用已知会引起过敏的食物，以降低风险和并发症。这篇综述旨在拓宽关于孕期食物过敏、其在婴儿身上的发病情况的知识，并使孕妇更容易应对这些食物过敏引起的并发症。它还旨在找出可能导致孕期女性过敏发作的某些食物，以及这些过敏对其婴儿的影响。
