Eggs, milk... Is food allergy testing really necessary?

Approximately 30% of pediatric atopic dermatitis cases are food-related, but this percentage is low for adults. Even if a test result is positive, it's permissible to eat the food if you don't experience actual symptoms.

알레르기 검사(MAST, UniCAP) 결과와 실제 증상이 항상 일치하지는 않습니다.

  • 식품 일지: 의심되는 음식을 먹고 24시간 내 반응을 기록하는 것이 가장 정확합니다.
  • 교차 반응: 라텍스 알레르기가 있으면 키위/바나나에도 반응할 수 있습니다.
  • 제한 원칙: 영양 불균형을 막기 위해 '확실한 반응'이 있는 음식만 제한합니다.

음식보다는 인스턴트, 첨가물, 단 음식이 더 큰 악화 요인인 경우가 많습니다.
