Book Description: SPCK Publishing, United Kingdom, 2006. Book Condition: as new. Food allergy has increased dramatically in the past decade or so. One out of three people either say that they have a food allergy, or that they modify the family diet because a family member is suspected of having a food allergy. Food allergy is clinically proven to affect at least 3 per cent of the adult population and up to 8 per cent of children in the UK, and some 2.7 million in the US, where approximately 100 Americans, usually children, die annually from food-induced anaphylaxis. Efficient self-management is vital because of the lack of healthcare provision. This supportive, unbiased book looks at food allergy myths and facts, including: what is food allergy?; tests and diagnosis; how to manage adverse reactions to food; prevention and longterm dietary planning; treatments - do they really help?; practicalities including travel and eating out; and keeping your immune system healthy. This book includes novel coverage of Oral Allergy Syndrome, the largest form of food allergy among the adult UK population. Retail Price £7.99, you save 43%.
