Abstract
A double-blind, crossover study of food extract injection [allergy] therapy [in humans] is reported. There was a significantly better response to food injection therapy than to placebo. In many cases the response of lifelong, severe, intractable syndromes was rapid and dramatic, often beginning in 3-4 days, and symptoms often returned within 3-4 days after beginning a course of placebo therapy. In clinical practice this should be a useful practical tool for demonstrating the etiologic role of foods and providing substantial relief in several serious syndromes for which no other satisfactory method of etiologic diagnosis or effective therapy is available.
