What can be done if the specific food causing an allergenic reac­tion cannot be determined?

When the exact cause of the food allergy remains unknown after all diagnostic tests have been completed, your doctor may prescribe drugs to alleviate the symptoms. (Unfortunately, such drugs cannol cure the allergy itself.) Another approach is the rotary diet, in which no food is repeated within a five-day span, thus reducing symptoms.
