Food allergies can range from merely irritating to life threatening. Approximately 30,000 Americans go to the emergency room each year to get treated for severe food allergies, according to the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN). It is estimated that 150 to 200 Americans die each year because of allergic reactions to food.
Join Us! Professor Ruby Pawankar, President of the World Allergy Organization (WAO), and Professor Motohiro Ebisawa, Chair of the WAO Communications Council, warmly welcome WAO Member Societies to World Allergy Week 2013 (8-14 April). This year’s theme is “Food Allergy—A Rising Global Health Problem”, and there are many ways Member Societies can participate to help highlight food allergies, provide information about the their increasing prevalence, and explain the need for enhanced education and patient care services to improve safey, prevention, and quality of life.
WAO will again provide resources for its member societies to use for local activities.

Risk assessment of novel and processed proteins in foodBas Kremer
This presentation was held at the 10th Protein Summit in Reims, France on September 27, 2017. Dr. Kitty Verhoeckx, lead scientist on allergenicity risk assessment at TNO, presented a cases study on mealworm allergenicity risks, associated with cross-reactivity in shrimp allergic people and de novo sensitization. This case study demonstrates the importance of allergenicity risk assessment in the R&D of novel and processed protein products.
Service providers who receive high nutrition risk referrals, particularly Registered Dietitians, need to be knowledgeable about general and clinical pediatric nutrition as well as counselling skills for working with families and children.
This is the last of five self-directed training modules available in PowerPoint presentations that have been developed and evaluated to respond to this need
The Role of Food Sensitivity and Food Intolerance TestsAlcat Test
Every person has different food intolerance symptoms for different kind of food. That is because the body reacts biological different to different substances present in their regular food. This can be determined by food intolerance testing. Once you know what troubles you, then its prevention becomes easier. Intolerance testing is simple and an easy process to conduct.

1. Confiscate or reinstate? That is the question for Food Allergy in Ireland.Ruth Charles, Paediatric Dietitian, MINDI.Ballinderry Clinic, St. Francis Hospital, Mullingar,Co. Westmeath.info@nutrikids.ie
2. Irish Food Allergy NetworkOctober 2009. Increased presentation of allergy at dietetic OPD clinics. The associated burden of care and quality of life issues are significant. No dedicated HSE funded Childhood Food Allergy (CFA) service in the Republic Wealth of knowledge and experience currently exists. General consensus reached on the need to network, collaborate, share resources, reconfigure existing structures and avoid duplication. Stakeholders database. Affiliation with IAAI (EAACI).
3. IFAN members: 61 Nutrition & Dietetics (Paediatrics, Adult & Community) 23 Nursing (Allergy, Respiratory, Dermatology) 23 Medicine (Paediatrics, Dermatology & Community Health) 7 Nutrition industry 3 Allergy Academia 2 Food and nutrition legislators, enforcers & trainers 2 Patient support groups 1
4. IFAN Issues Patient issues DIAGNOSIS, management & rechallenge: who, where, how No basic GP/A&E/HCP training Awareness/understanding of allergy and implications lacking Replication/duplication best avoided Food issues Food labelling Eating outside the home
5. Food labelling & the law Legislation European Directives 2003/89/EC and 2006/142/EC All ingredients Presence of 14 recognised allergens intentionally added to prepacked foods Not applicable to low level unintentional contaminants or non prepacked. www.fsai.ie
6. EAACI Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Meeting February 2011 Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Alliance FAAA Criteria for use of precautionary statements Major allergens declared Simple language clear terms Consumer communication European Federation of Allergy & Airways Disease EFA Packaged and non packaged foods Abolish precautionary labelling Establish thresholds ( Taylor et al. Clin Exp Allergy,2004; Moneret-Vautrin. Curr Opin Allergy Clin Immunol. 2004; Crevel at al. Allergy 2008. Working groups: ILSI Europe, Europrevall, CONGEN etc)
7. Food Allergens & labelling survey June 2011. www.fsai.ie Survey: affected by Food allergy intolerances Crude, 509, voluntary, biased, web based, 5 questions, 85% medically diagnosed. Peanut & tree nuts, Egg & other, Milk Analysis: 229, no label/precautionary egg, nut, soy No allergen labelling 11/106 (nut 2, egg 5) Precautionary labelling 7/108, 93.5% had undetectable egg, peanut, soy.
8. Conclusions Scepticism and low consumer confidence in precautionary labels is justified Zero risk unfeasible National and EU registry of severe allergic reactions (Worm at al, Allergy, 2010) : detect prevalence Safety/labelling thresholds: processes for risk assessment & robust monitoring systems Food Allergens & labelling survey June 2011. www.fsai.ie
9. Where to next? The patient & family IFAN huge knowledge and skill base aims & objectives Lead/chair
Editor's Notes
Key issue is that if may contain foods have caused anaphylaxis
