Hi Im 50 and ate peanuts fresh from the shell and im not and have never been allergic to peanuts but I found myself with cramps and vomiting after eating them unsure if you can get allergies at my age . I just dont know???
Hey Kim you might just have a mild alergy I can eat peanuts but if I have more than a small handful I have intestinal cramps etc.
Raw peanuts can carry a mold that makes you sick. In the future, besure they are blanched, roasted or boiled before eating them.
there's some symptoms missing from an allergic reaction, there should have been more going on in respiration and heart.
An allergic response to peanuts usually occurs within minutes after exposure, and symptoms range from mild to severe. Peanut allergy symptoms can include:
Skin reactions such as hives, redness or swelling
Itching or tingling in or around the mouth and throat
Digestive problems such as diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea or vomiting
Tightening of the chest
Shortness of breath or wheezing
Runny or stuffy nose
maybe it was something else with the peanuts or only a coincidence.
