Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

The video discusses dry roasting nuts which may cause changes in the nut proteins that make them more irritating to the immune system of some children. Processing methods such as extracting oils from corn or milling grains may concentrate allergens to a higher level that may cause a severe allergy. The tendency to develop allergies (due to a particular antibody) runs in families as well. Food colorings may be added during processing and may trigger allergies in some individuals.
