How to start a food allergy?
A hypersensitivity reaction to food is usually a type 1 allergic reaction to something in the diet.
This means that the child's immune system produces a class of antibodies called IgE in response to a particular food. These antibodies cause the allergic symptoms.
In fact, only about 3 percent of children suffer from allergic reactions to food and most outgrow them before they reach the age of three.
Almost one third of the population omit certain foods from your diet or the diet of their children because they believe that cause an allergic reaction.
