Download or read book Food Allergy written by Frederic Speer and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The management of food allergy begins with identification of responsible allergens. Successful detection depends on a thorough knowledge of food classification, food families and individual foods (the cause) and clinical manifestations in respiratory tracts, gastrointestinal tracts, skin, systematic reactions, genitourinary tract, musculoskeletal system, and nervous system (the effect). The second step is to provide the patient with a diet that is allergen-free, acceptable, and nourishing, once the allergen has been identified and eliminated. Detection and treatment of food allergy is possible through elimination diets, depending on the degree of patient tolerance, supplemented, if necessary, by vitamins and minerals. Palatable and nourishing diets can be prepared using substitutes for intolerable foods. Infant allergies can be dealt with by rotating diets.
Download or read book The Peanut Allergy Answer Book written by Michael C Young and published by Fair Winds Press. This book was released on 2006-08-01 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revised and updated version of the definitive peanut allergy book. Since the publication of The Peanut Allergy Answer Book in May 2001, there has been much additional research published in the field of peanut allergy and anaphylaxis in medical literature. This research includes new diagnostic tests, new vaccines and therapies, and new information on the history of peanut allergy. In addition, there has also been a great increase in public awareness of the societal impact of peanut allergy, such as in schools and other child-care facilities, in restaurants, and in the food and restaurant industry. This attention has led to the publication of guidelines for schools in the management of food allergies and anaphylaxis, to legislation such as the Food Allergen Labeling Consumer Protection Act of 2006, and proposed legislation for restaurant guidelines for food-allergic consumers. The incidence of peanut allergy has doubled in the past five years and continues to increase so the impact of this medical problem, particularly in young children, is enormous. The Peanut Allergy Answer Book, 2nd Edition,. contains 50% of new and revised material, including a new foreword and introduction, as well as new chapters such as, "Why has peanut allergy increased so much in the past 5-10 years?"; "What is the difference between being peanut-sensitive and peanut-allergic?"; "What is the Hygiene Hypothesis?"; and "Can skin contact cause an anaphylactic reaction?"
