Con: OIT is safe/better than food avoidance

Food allergy (FA) is well-recognized as a major public health problem, affecting 8% of children and 5% of adults in the industrialized countries.1 Despite the relatively high prevalence of this disorder, there is unfortunately no definitive cure. For a long time, the classical approach for the management of IgE-mediated FA has been strict food avoidance and the prescription of epinephrine auto-injector in case of accidental reaction. Regular oral food challenges (OFC) are performed in order to assess spontaneous tolerance acquisition.
