Abstract

To investigate the clinical signs of food allergy is to open new horizons for the understanding of worrying acute symptoms for the patients and too often only symptomatic treatment. It is also possible to take control in a more logical way of illnesses that are classified as chronic and so incurable. The clinical examination requires great attention and much listening. Urticaria, eczema, rhinitis, asthma, colitis are the most frequent symptoms. More rarely, there may be certain migraines or lipoid nephrosis in children.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
