Hi, is food allergy and food intolerance the same thing?

A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have severe IBS symptoms. Eliminating food that causes reaction for the past 2 months. Notice my nails became extremely brittle, meaning I dont get the necessary nutrients I need.

Oh how I relate with the severe IBS! Battled it since 1994 and still no relief. I take several vitamins to try to help my body absorb nutrients. I’ve noticed it does help with a bit of energy.
