  • Title: Dietary hypersensitivity in cats and dogs.
    Author: Mandigers P, German AJ.
    Journal: Tijdschr Diergeneeskd; 2010 Oct 01; 135(19):706-10. PubMed ID: 21073096.
    Abstract:
    Adverse reactions to food or dietary hypersensitivity are frequently seen problems in companion animal medicine and may be difficult to differentiate from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Dietary hypersensitivity can be divided into two subgroups: immunological and nonimmunological problems. Non-immunological problems can be subdivided into food intolerance, food poisoning, and dietary indiscretion. The immunological group can be subdivided into true food allergy (IgE mediated) and anaphylaxis (non-IgE mediated). This article gives an outline of what dietary hypersensitivity is, and more specifically food allergy and how to deal with patients with possible dietary hypersensitivity.
