One of the primary symptoms of a soybean allergy is feeling an itching or tingling sensation in the mouth shortly after eating soy or foods containing soy products. The reaction can sometimes extend to the lips and throat.
Commonly, an allergic reaction to soybeans can lead to a skin rash or hives, which is characterized by red, itchy, raised bumps on the skin. Urticaria or hives may appear anywhere on the body and often start within an hour of eating soy-containing products.
Abdominal pain is another key symptom of a soybean allergy. After eating soy or soy products, the individual may suffer from severe pain, discomfort, or cramps in the lower abdominal area.
When an individual with a soy allergy consumes soy, they may experience difficulty in breathing. This can include a tightness in the throat, shortness of breath, or even anaphylaxis in severe cases which requires immediate medical attention.
Nausea and vomiting are also common manifestations of a soy allergy. The digestive system reacts adversely to the allergen, leading to feelings of nausea which can result in vomiting.
Another symptom of a soybean allergy is the onset of a runny nose or sneezing. These symptoms occur as part of the body's immune system response to expel the soy allergens through the nasal passageways.

Soy is often hidden in processed foods in forms such as soy protein, soy lecithin, and soy oil. By avoiding processed foods and cook your meals from scratch, you can significantly reduce your exposure to soy.
Manufacturers are required to list common allergens, including soy, on their product labels. So, always check food labels and know the different names that may be used for soy such as miso, tofu and tempeh.
When dining out, always inform the restaurant staff about your soy allergy. Ask about the ingredients used in the meal you are ordering, and if there may be any cross-contamination during the preparation process.
A registered dietitian or a doctor can provide you with individualized advice on managing your soy allergy. They can help you to understand food labels, suggest alternative foods, and guide you on what to do if you mistakenly consume soy.
