What to do if you are allergic to royal jelly

In this modern age of knowledge, people's intellectual level is constantly improving, but their physical fitness is declining. People's attention to nutrition is rising. They are not only concerned about food and clothing, but now focus on nutritional balance. Royal jelly is the only super nutritious food in the world that can be taken directly by humans. Everyone knows that royal jelly is a very good beauty agent and everyone wants to use it for a long time. But some people are wondering if anyone might be allergic to royal jelly? Let us explain this to you below.


Although royal jelly is rich in nutrients, it is not beneficial to everyone. If you take it blindly without considering your condition or physical condition, it will backfire and even have an adverse effect on your health.

A small number of people are allergic to royal jelly. Slightly more, about 0.5%, are allergic to royal jelly. In December 1995, the British Medical Journal reported the first case of royal jelly-induced asthma in the UK. This is a 31-year-old asthmatic woman who had 2 acute asthma attacks within 6 weeks, each of which occurred 40 minutes after taking royal jelly capsules. A month later, a 23-year-old Australian woman suffered an acute asthma attack, followed by cardiac arrest, and died two days later, apparently after taking royal jelly capsules.

A study by an Australian physician found that taking royal jelly can trigger acute asthma or allergic reactions in susceptible individuals. In this study of 7 people with a history of asthma, taking royal jelly caused a true immunoglobulin allergic reaction, ranging in severity from dyspnea to respiratory arrest within 5-90 minutes after ingestion. There is now ample evidence that royal jelly contains allergenic proteins that can potentially cause life-threatening reactions in people with asthma or allergies. The Australian Medical Association and Asthma Foundation of Australia have called for a ban on such supplements.

Royal jelly is widely consumed in Asian countries, but no reports of severe allergic reactions and deaths have been found. This may be because the general public and medical personnel are unaware of the connection between royal jelly consumption and allergic reactions. Although there is no need to restrict the sale of royal jelly, people with asthma or allergies should be warned that consuming royal jelly may cause serious adverse reactions.

Everyone should understand the above. Although royal jelly is very nutritious, it can be eaten directly and is well absorbed by the human body. However, it is recommended that people with allergies take royal jelly with caution, and use it in moderation if you want to use it for beauty purposes. Take care of everyone's health and do not use or eat anything recklessly.
