If you have skin allergies, be a little cautious with peanuts. If you have never been allergic to peanuts, eating them while having a skin allergy should not be a problem. Peanuts have high nutritional value and can be compared to animal foods such as eggs, milk, and meat, earning them the nickname "longevity fruit." Traditional Chinese medicine says that peanuts can strengthen the spleen and stomach and moisten the lungs to reduce phlegm. Clinically, we still see patients who are allergic to peanuts. Therefore, if you have been allergic to peanuts before, you should avoid eating them.
