Abstract

Diagnosis of exercise-induced anaphylaxis is based on conjunction between a specific factor: a specific or nonspecific food allergy and exercise. The authors report observation of a patient who presented with exercise-induced anaphylaxis associated with food allergy to spinach, but also with a cross reaction with latex.
