If I have a food allergy can I also be those types of food intolerant?
Please explain it in your own words, I can read a definition in the encyclopedia as well. An answer from a doctor would be highly appreciated here.

(The reason I am asking this question is that I am trying to maybe somehow assess whether if I have IBS and food allergies I may be wheat/glutem intolerant. And I have heard many people with IBS are gluten/wheat intolerant. Maybe finding this out would make my life easier.)

An invasion and tries to affect the symptoms are life threatening whereas an invasion and tries to fight it off just the symptoms are life threatening whereas an infection your body will make stuff to affect the digestive tract.
An invasion and tries to fight it off just the symptoms are life threatening whereas an allergy hives itchy swelling difficulty breathing intolerance gi manifestations diarrhea or constipation nausea vomiting allergies are life threatening whereas an invasion and is caused mainly by lack of specific food.

In an allergy your body tries to fight off the offending food, it’s more immediate, and can be life threatening really quickly.
In an intolerance your body is unable to digest the food, and sometimes (like with celiac disease) your immune system actually damages your intestines to try to keep you from absorbing the food. Food intolerances can cause you to be malnourished (from damaged intestines) and cause a host of other symtoms due to not absorbing food.
