The rising prevalence of food allergy is a global concern, especially as children are more susceptible to developing anaphylaxis than adults. Food-induced anaphylaxis, a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction, imposes a healthcare burden in many Asian countries. While literature on food allergy in Asia is limited and heterogeneous, the prevalence shows an upward trend. In contrast, food allergy in developing countries is often overlooked as a health issue. China, with its vast population and landmass, is experiencing notable shifts in food allergy patterns. Unlike Western countries where tree nuts are common triggers, wheat, seafood, and fruits increasingly provoke allergic reactions among the Chinese population. Various diagnostic methods for food allergy were employed in China; however, the lack of a standardized approach presents challenges for effective management. In the future, it is essential to develop efficient and convenient detection methods while utilizing big data for extensive epidemiological investigations and clinical studies to address the complex health issue of food allergy.
