Almond allergies present a significant health concern, similar to other tree nut allergies. They can be both widespread and severe, often emerging early in life. Research indicates that approximately 30 percent of individuals with a tree nut allergy demonstrate sensitivity to more than one variety. One of the challenges posed by almond allergies is the widespread use of almonds in various food products, ranging from snacks to baked goods and even cosmetics.

Symptoms of tree nut allergies typically manifest within minutes of ingestion and can range from hives to anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening reaction that impedes breathing and induces shock. Recognition of tree nuts can be challenging, as evidenced by a study where only half of participants with a tree nut allergy accurately identified all the forms of nuts to which they were allergic. Common symptoms of tree nut allergies include abdominal pain, cramps, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, difficulty swallowing, itching of the mouth, throat, eyes, skin, nasal congestion, runny nose, shortness of breath, and anaphylaxis.
