Default Nut allergy.

Peanut is not from the nut family. If one is allergic to just peanut, he or she may be not be allergic to other products from the nut family, but may be allergic to other legumes.

Something that I am surprise my pediatrician told us when my daughter was allergic to peanuts. She was told to stay away from nuts! She was fine eating nuts but not legumes.

If it is protein allergy, well that's a different story! Nuts, seeds, whey, Greek yogurt, tofu may be off limits!

She eventually grew out of her allergy and all is well!
