ABSTRACT
Food allergy is an abnormal immune response triggered by food allergens, resulting in symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, gastroesophageal reflux, pruritus, dyspnea, and in severe cases, anaphylactic shock and mortality. The prevalence of food allergy varies within the population, with a significantly higher incidence observed among children compared to adults. This escalating trend in pediatric food allergy has emerged as a prominent concern jeopardizing children's well-being, thus prompting extensive investigations within the realm of global public health. Over the past three decades, there has been a progressive increase in the global prevalence of food allergy, accompanied by a heightened severity of allergic manifestations. Environmental factors have been identified as crucial determinants in this escalating phenomenon. Extensive research has demonstrated the pivotal role played by the environment in both the onset and progression of food allergies. The present article aims to consolidate the effects of diverse environmental factors on food allergy, elucidating their underlying mechanisms. Emphasis is placed on delineating the impact of distinct environmental factors on food allergy, thereby furnishing valuable insights for comprehending the risk factors associated with this condition. Furthermore, this comprehensive analysis contributes to the advancement of scientific strategies for the prevention and management of food allergy, promoting the development and advancement of preventive medicine.
