How can i get rid of my food allergies?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Avoid the foods: There is currently no specific treatment for food allergies. Only avoiding the foods that are a problem. There are tests to tell what foods are a problem so you can avoid them. In severe cases like eosinophilic esophagitis, there are elimination diets and some studies looking at a drug called montelukast. Results have not been great so far.
