Peanut and Milk Oral Immunotherapy

Currently the only treatment we have for food allergies is avoidance.

Recent studies have shown oral immunotherapy desensitization are impressive and should not be dismissed.  The first one involved peantut and 62% in the peanut treatment group achieved desensitization.  In the milk study, 61% tolerated milk protein.

There remains a lot to be studied for Oral Immunotherapy, it is not currently available for clinical practice, but only for research studies now.
