When you consume or come in close contact, the body misinterprets onions as invaders. The immune system releases immunoglobulin-E (IgE) antibodies to protect the body against the allergy-causing substance, onion. The allergic symptoms to onion include rashes, rhinitis, conjunctivitis, itching, headache, swelling of the lips, tongue, and mouth, nausea, diarrhea, gas, stomach pain, dizziness, and anaphylaxis (very rare). Onions can induce both immediate and delayed hypersensitivity reactions. Watchful eating and avoiding foods containing onions, including salads, dressings, sauces, etc., is the best way to prevent such an allergy.
