Food hypersensitivity: association with atopic diseases
I still feel that food allergy is a very commonly overlooked contribution to chronic diseases. Here we see further report for this contribution with dairy being second on the list (kiwi #1). One thing I find interesting is that milk allergy was almost twice as common as peanut, and yet peanut allergy is always getting lots of press and warnings are seen on all types of labels. Although there is the danger of anaphylactic shock from peanuts, the chronic contribution of dairy allergy to disease is still a foreign concept to most clinicians.
