Agency welcomes new allergy project

The Food Standards Agency is supporting an international study into food allergy which has just launched. The project, led by the University of Manchester and funded by the European Commission, will involve leading experts from across the world, including the UK, Europe and the USA. The Integrated Approaches to Food Allergen and Allergy Risk Management (iFAAM) is expected to produce a standardised approach to allergen management for companies involved in food manufacturing. It will also develop tools to inform new health advice to prevent the development of food allergies.
