Overview

Tuna is sold in cans or portioned into steaks and fillets, which can be purchased fresh or frozen. Due to its many health benefits, tuna is a prized ingredient in many products and recipes, such as salads, and sandwiches. Unfortunately, many individuals with food allergies or hypersensitivity may experience an adverse reaction after consuming tuna.

Individuals should also note that there is allergic cross-reactivity between various types of fish, which means that individuals with allergies to one type of fish are likely to have or develop an allergy to other finned fish. This cross-reactivity is due to a protein found in many fish called parvalbumin. Therefore, individuals allergic to tuna are generally advised to avoid all finned fish, including salmon, cod, herring, swordfish, sole, snapper, and bass.

An allergy to Tuna fish triggers a reaction in an individual's immune system. The body views certain substances as toxic and produces IgE antibodies to these contaminants. These antibodies cause histamine to be released, which will cause the symptoms of an allergic reaction.
