Abstract
Food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis (FDEIA) is a life-threatening but relatively rare disorder which occurs mainly in older children and young adults and manifests with symptoms of anaphylaxis upon exercise following ingestion of certain kinds of food. We herewith report 3 cases of soybean-induced FDEIA. We also highlight 2 types of soybean-induced FDEIA, one caused by storage protein components Gly m 5 and Gly m 6 and the other caused by pollen-related allergen components.
