DESCRIPTION:“Having been previously an uncommon condition\, allergy now 
 affects a quarter of the population.  Allergic diseases have become more c
 omplex and severe\, affecting multiple organ systems within individuals.\n
 \nFood allergy is responsible in large part for the severe profile of the 
 modern allergy epidemic.  As accumulation of this disease in the populatio
 n has accelerated\, science has been slow to catch up.  As a result\, medi
 cal care has often not been based on the best evidence.\n\nIn the Addenbro
 oke’s allergy service\, we have been addressing this deficit over the pa
 st decade\, establishing clinical patterns by defining the natural history
  of severe food allergy and the best approaches to diagnosis and treatment
 .  In this talk I will discuss the accumulated evidence behind the best cu
 rrent and future treatments of food allergy.”\nSee www.csar.org.uk for m
