ABSTRACT

Food intolerance(FI)is a type of adverse food reaction,which can cause discomfort through immune effects,enzyme deficiency,reduced enzyme activity,pharmacological effects and other mechanisms.FI involves all systems of the body and is associated with migraine,inflammatory bowel disease,irritable bowel syndrome,dermatitis etc.,and even involves some rare diseases.The incidence of FI is high,but due to the insidious onset,the complexity of food types,so its diag-nosis is difficult.At present,the pathogenes of FI is unclear,misdiagnosis and mistreatment prevent effective improvement of symptoms of FI patients,which lower the quality of life of patients.Therefore,it is very important to explore the pathogenesis of FI and further research on more simple and effective diagnosis methods and individualized treatment measures for the preven-tion and treatment of FI.This article mainly reviews the research progress on the pathogenesis,diagnosis,and treatment of FI,in order to provide reference for further research on novel diagnostic,preventive,and therapeutic methods for FI.
