METHODS: A total of 1341 patients with asthma were included in the present study. The clinical sensitivity to food and its relation to respiratory symptoms were assessed cross-sectionally (using detailed questionnaires), and longitudinally during their regular visits to the asthma clinic using diet diary. Total IgE was determined for a subsample of the patients (No = 392). RESULTS: The prevalence of clinical sensitivity to food was 29%; about 2 thirds of the patients had high total IgE level.
