Abstract

All types of food and food products carry potential of allergies in human. The property of allergic tendency is being carried through generations to generation in their genomic sequence. The allogenic behaviour of body towards all types of nutraceuticals and ingredients raises huge concern among dermatologist to manage patient. We here have reported a very rare adverse event following ingestion of common staple food of elephant foot yam. However, we suggest that all types of tuberous roots and vegetables should undergo pre-treatment/washing before its consumption for the removal of toxic chemicals and impurities.
