Abstract
GARCIA, B.E. et al. Food allergy in the XXI century. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2003, vol.26, suppl.2, pp.07-15. ISSN 1137-6627.
Food allergy is a clinical state of high frequency and possible risk to life. This article reviews the foodstuffs most often responsible for serious reactions, including data from the Autonomous Community of Navarre. Given that dietetic elimination is the primordial long term treatment for food allergy, its difficulties, limitations and risks are analyzed. Finally, we set out the new perspectives offered by technology in the field of food allergy, both in the production of hypoallergens and in the development of new forms of immunotherapy.
