Food is one of the most common causes of anaphylaxis responsible for more than 50-75% of anaphylactic cases in children. Most frequently implicated foods in childhood are milk, egg, nuts, sesame, fish and shellfish worldwide. There are some differences in incidence of types of food allergy in different areas.
