If you or your child already have other forms of allergies, you might want to be extra careful with kiwi. A new study shows that, particularly in children, kiwi can result to severe allergic reactions. If an allergy test hasn't been done yet to identify the substances to which you or your children are allergic to, take extra precaution just in case you do show allergic symptoms.

Incidentally, kiwi allergies are also linked to latex allergies and hay fever. If you're allergic to one, you may be allergic to the others, too.
