Building Tolerance

For the family allergic to peanut, cashew and egg at once, single-food immunotherapy solved a third of the fear. Multi-food OIT takes on the whole list — tiny doses of several allergens, escalated together over years of appointments.

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts, largely from parents and teenagers, walk the long protocol: the baseline challenges, powder scales in kitchens, updose days with epinephrine within reach, reactions that paused progress, and the graduation dose — a child eating a cookie containing three former emergencies. Writers cover the anaphylaxis that ended one family's course, maintenance fatigue, exercise and illness rules, and the unquantifiable change in a family's radius of life.

Who it's for

For allergy families weighing multi-food OIT, deep in the updosing years, or holding maintenance and wondering how loose life can safely become.
