Food Allergy Courses Around the World
Isabel Skypala promoting the important role of dietitians in allergy management
Taken from the EAACI Newsletter, 2018, Volume 4, #53
Taken from the EAACI Newsletter, 2018, Volume 4, #53
Isabel highlights the following:
Adults with suspected food allergy often have complex histories and relationships with food. I passionately believe that specialist allergy dietitians are perfectly placed to diagnose and manage these patients.
In 2009, Berber Vlieg-Boerstra, Carina Venter and I created the International Network of Diet and Nutrition in Allergy (INDANA) in order to promote the role of food and nutrition in allergy. This international society was the driver for the establishment of the Allied Health Interest Group.
Isabel created and chaired an international Task Force of the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI), to establish agreed competencies in allergy practice for allied health professionals. The EAACI Competencies for Allied health Care Professionals working in Allergy were published in 2018- see below for the link to the article.
