Abstract

Strict elimination of foods because of food allergies can interfere with good nutrition. It is essential that the diagnosis of a food allergy be proven thoroughly to avoid unnecessary food restrictions. Comprehensive education should show where allergenic foods are found, how to find appropriate substitutes for the eliminated foods and corresponding nutrients, and how to avoid accidental ingestion of allergenic foods. A nutrition assessment is an essential part of the clinical follow-up. Identifying nutrition-related problems early can correct difficult situations and prevent long-term health consequences.
