Rice

Rice is regarded as hypoallergenic and is often included as a food in elimination diets but, for some people, rice, like any food, can be a problem. For example:

Two studies confirmed rice allergy as the cause of rhinitis and asthma in some individuals. [2,3]

González-Mendiola et al linked a case of asthma to the inhalation of vapours from boiling rice. [1]

Nambu et al identified rice powder inhalation as the cause of a seven year old girl’s asthma and rice powder, used in the making of rice cakes, as the cause of her conjunctivitis. They also found that eczema in a three year old boy was caused by eating rice. [4]
