    AbstractExercise-induced anaphylaxis (EIA) and its subtype, food dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis are uncommon and therefore underdiagnosed forms of physical allergy. Triggers include various degrees of exercise in combination with ingestion of specific food products. Treatment remains identical to that of IgE-mediated allergic reactions. The presentation is commonly underdiagnosed and caries significant fatality risk, and this case should raise the awareness of the attending physician.
