We present a case of a 27-years-old female who experienced several episodes of food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis (FDEIA). Besides two typical episodes of FDEIA triggered by a postprandial physical exercise, she also experienced atypical episodes in which the sequence of the causative stimuli was clearly reversed-clinical symptoms which appeared after a prolonged exercise, followed by ingestion of the sensitizing food. This unusual clinical picture entitled us to extend the routine recommendations- avoidance of the coincidence of food allergens intake and exercise accordingly to her history.

Food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis (FDEIA) is a rare and complex clinical condition in which allergic reactions are triggered by specific foods combined with physical activity, even though the food allergen and exercise are tolerated individually. Wheat is the most common culprit food leading to wheat dependent exercise induced anaphylaxis (WDEIA). Management of FDEIA is challenging due to the unpredictability of attacks and the lack of approved prophylactic medications.

Article Synopsis
- Exercise-induced anaphylaxis (EIA) is challenging to diagnose due to the influence of co-factors and the absence of consistent testing methods.
- Recent research indicates that EIA may not be simply categorized into food-independent or food-dependent types, highlighting the complexity of its triggers, including food, medications, and alcohol.
- Clinicians can enhance patient care by recognizing how these co-factors contribute to EIA symptoms, allowing for more personalized treatment strategies and improved patient quality of life.

Article Synopsis
- Soy-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis is a potentially increasing allergy that often goes undiagnosed.
- The rise in soy's popularity in Western diets means more people are unwittingly consuming it, especially in processed foods.
- Many of these processed foods target fitness enthusiasts, making soy a hidden allergen for this group.

Article Synopsis
- Lipid transfer protein (LTP) is a key protein linked to food-induced anaphylaxis, particularly in Mediterranean European countries, but this was the first reported case in China.
- A 12-year-old boy in China suffered from recurrent anaphylaxis triggered by intense exercise and showed high immunoglobulin E levels sensitized to various foods and pollens, especially mugwort and multiple grains and fruits.
- After receiving guidance on avoiding certain foods before exercise and carrying an epinephrine auto-injector, the boy experienced no further episodes over a 6-month follow-up, highlighting the need for awareness of LTP in similar cases.
