Abstract

RATIONALE: Management of non-IgE mediated food allergies in early childhood involves allergen avoidance by using extensively hydrolysed (eHF) or amino acid-based formulas (AAF). Clinical anecdote suggests that AAF relieve symptoms more effectively in some patients than using eHF or simple allergen avoidance. This study aimed to explore whether AAF has additional immunomodulatory properties. METHODS: Forty-eight pediatric patients (
