Food allergy
"Allergic disease has become dramatically more common in the UK over the past few decades, with nearly 40% of children having an allergic diagnosis. Allergic disease effects a child’s growth, development, educational, social and psychological well being."
Adverse reactions...
Food allergy is an adverse immune response to a food. It can be classified
into IgE-mediated and non-IgE-mediated reactions. An allergy-focused clinical history is the first-line diagnosis tool to
help determine whether a child has a food allergy.
