Lentil and chickpea anaphylaxis after exercise

Food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis is related to the intake of a specific food . Anaphylaxis only occurs after the food has been eaten and is followed by exercise or vigorous physical activity within a few hours.

Orhan and Karakas report on a case of a seventeen year old boy who had four episodes of exercise-induced anaphylactic reaction after eating lentils and two episodes of anaphylaxis after eating chickpeas.
