Abstract
Food allergy is a common problem in patients
with atopic dermatitis, particularly in children. Based on clinical
data from the past few decades, it is clear that food as cow’s
milk and hen eggs can directly provoke fl ares of atopic dermatitis,
particularly in sensitized infants. Because the role and
immunology of food allergy in atopic dermatitis remain controversial,
here we review data that mainly focus on food allergy in
children with atopic dermatitis.
