Nov. 13, 2012 - PRLog -- Anyone researching nickel allergy often sees the phrase “nickel is ubiquitous”.  So, if nickel is everywhere, is it present in food?  The answer is a definite yes, but the question lies in whether this nickel is creating problems for the typical nickel allergy sufferer.
   
More and more allergists are seeing a probable cause and effect relationship between the ingestion of foods high in nickel and resulting health concerns.  A recent study has shown that healthy food choices may result in dermatitis symptoms.  An increased consumption in whole grains, oatmeal, and legumes may be responsible for a nickel build up in the body that may result in a nasty rash.  

Most Thanksgiving diners can enjoy the food and fellowship this special holiday brings with no more worries than some extra calories.  But for those previously diagnosed with nickel allergy or who have symptoms such as hand and foot eczema or ongoing hives,  The Nickel Allergy Diet may be a place to start in studying the relationship between what has been consumed and resulting health issues.  
Common Thanksgiving food items that may be high in nickel include Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, canned vegetables, mushrooms, onions, rhubarb, chocolate, and red wine.  Canned foods are a notable concern as the nickel in some cans may leach into the foods, particularly highly acidic fruits and vegetables, creating a higher nickel content.  

As bakers gear up for the holidays, there is the caution that common cooking items such baking powder and cocoa powder generally have high amounts of nickel as well.   Allergists recommend keeping a food diary and noting any resulting concerns, even though nickel’s effects are cumulative and may not be noticed right away.
