    Author: Cantani A.
    Journal: Riv Eur Sci Med Farmacol; 1992 Feb; 14(1):53-61. PubMed ID: 1529148.
    Abstract:
    Elimination diets may be constructed in several ways and can be adapted to the suspected sensitivities of the individual patient. These diets are more easily tolerated than the more general elimination diets, so patients compliance is improved. In other cases, the diet is restricted to a few foods, such a rice, olive oil and lamb which are rarely implicated in food allergy. Home-made meat-based formulas are very well accepted by infants and parents. They are also useful oligoantigenic diet for the diagnosis of food allergy, allowing the introduction of other nutrients such as saccharose, wheat, etc. We use with good results and infant's compliance a home-made meat-based diet prepared as suggested by Rezza in 1973. A major advantage of this diet is that it can be tailored to the individual patient, that is vegetables, other types of fruit and meat, wheat flour and other nutrients can be added to the diet according to the age and weight of the child and the physician's judgement.
