Types of Food Allergies We Treat

At Safe2Bite, we treat a wide range of food allergies affecting both children and adults, offering families in Frisco expert food allergy care. Our board-certified food allergist and team provide personalized treatment based on each patient’s specific food allergies and reaction history, whether they are managing one food allergy or reactions to multiple foods. Some of the food allergies we treat include the following.

Peanut AllergiesPeanut allergies can cause severe allergic reactions, with shared equipment and surfaces increasing the chance of cross-contact.

Milk Allergies – Milk is one of the most common food allergens in young children. Unlike lactose intolerance, a milk allergy involves the immune system.

Egg Allergies – Egg allergy often develops during childhood. Some children react to every form of egg, while others can eat baked egg after evaluation by an allergist.

Seed AllergiesSeed allergy symptoms may follow contact with sesame, sunflower, pumpkin or other seeds found in many everyday foods.

Tree Nut Allergies – Walnuts, almonds, cashews and other tree nuts contain different proteins, so a person may react to one variety while tolerating another.

Shellfish AllergiesShellfish allergy frequently develops in adulthood, with reactions triggered by crustaceans such as shrimp and crab or mollusks such as clams and oysters.

What Are the Symptoms of
Food Allergies?

Food allergies can leave you with mild to severe symptoms, that can sometimes be life-threatening. Symptoms could affect different areas of the body, including the skin, digestive system and respiratory system. In most cases, symptoms appear within minutes of eating the food, but they can sometimes take a few hours to develop. The following are warning signs that it's time to seek a formal food allergy evaluation.

Itching, hives, skin rashes or welts.

Lip, face, tongue or eye swelling.

Mouth, throat or ears tingling or itching.

Vomiting or diarrhea.

Severe swelling of the throat or tongue.

Trouble breathing, wheezing or persistent cough.

Paleness, lethargy, dizziness or fainting.

Rapid pulse or loss of consciousness.

Personalized Food Allergy Testing and Treatment

At Safe2Bite, we offer cutting-edge food allergy testing and diagnosis to determine the most effective treatment for you or your child. These include a skin prick test (SPT) and blood testing. If these tests fail to confirm a food allergy, we may recommend a medically supervised oral food challenge (OFC) or a blood-based basophil activation test (BAT) to confirm or rule out a true food allergy and get you on track to food freedom.

Once a food allergy is confirmed, the next step is creating a custom treatment plan. The following are some of the innovative food allergy treatments we offer.

Single-Food Oral Immunotherapy (OIT)

You or your child will ingest tiny amounts of a food allergen that we increase gradually over time, all under the watchful eye of our Safe2Bite team. OIT can help lower your sensitivity to a certain food allergen over time, which helps reduce the chances of serious reactions in the future.

Multi-Food Oral Immunotherapy (OIT)

This treatment is similar to single-food OIT, with the difference being that it addresses multiple food allergies in a single treatment. You will ingest tiny, increasing doses of several allergens under the supervision of our Safe2Bite team, with the goal being to build tolerance and reduce your risk of severe adverse reactions.

Food Sublingual Immunotherapy (SLIT)

SLIT involves placing small, increasing doses of a food allergen extract under the tongue, helping gradually increase tolerance. SLIT has been shown to significantly reduce the risk of severe allergic reactions.

Managing Your Food Allergies

Our board-certified food allergist will work alongside you to create a food allergy management plan. First and foremost, it's important to understand the symptoms of anaphylaxis and always carry your epinephrine auto-injector for your safety. Depending on your unique needs, we will create a food allergy safety plan for work or at school to ensure your or your child's safety. We will also help you understand how to read food labels to reduce the risk of exposure to your allergen. Our board-certified food allergist and team are always happy to offer tips and guidance to ensure your safety, while helping you live your life to the fullest.
