To my opinion, some patients may have reversible tolerance to food allergens. This tolerance that might appear or disappear can be related to the presence of triggers that activate the mast cell, and include exercise, NSAIDs, alcohol or stress. Different authors have already stated that food allergy can be activated by NSAIDs, exercise, alcohol or stress. These authors demonstrated increase of food absortion as an explanation. It can also suggest that these triggers lowered threshold for the release of cytoplasmatic mediators from mast cell As we can not work with mast cell we did it with basophils and we evaluate the effect of NSAID on basophile response to food allergens using BAT.
