| Abstract;Onset of food allergy usually starts from infancy. Diagnosis of food allergy during infancy could be made by the medical history, Prick skin test, IgE CAPRAST, food elimination test for two weeks, and food diary. However, it is necessary to perform food provocation tests for the cases sensitized with multiple allergens, and for the evaluation of the development of oral tolerance before starting school life. Currently, the treatment of food allergy is to eliminate food allergens, therefore, accurate diagnosis should be made by doctors. In some cases with food allergy, Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Food Challenge (DBPCFC) is necessary to exclude the bias of both patients and doctors. Here we report the current consensus of diagnosis of food allergy and the establishment of food provocation test using dried food powder and strawberry pyre, with which DBPCFC could be easily carried out.
