Abstract
Background Wheat Dependent Exercise Induced Anaphylaxis (WDEIA) is a form of Food Dependent Exercise Induced Anaphylaxis. WDEIA occurs when there is an allergic reaction following the ingestion of wheat, coupled with exercise [1]. The suspected allergen that is responsible for WDEIA is omega5gliadin [2]. We report a series of adult clinical cases of WDEIA recorded between 2006-2009 at Health Sciences Centre (Winnipeg). The purpose of this study was to compare the results of Skin Prick Test (SPT) to commercial wheat extract and wheat flour in patients with WDEIA.
