Tolerance is the ability to consume large, infrequent amounts of food proteins on a regular basis resulting in zero activation of allergic pathways.
During this phase, your child will undergo a systematic transition away from daily protein exposure and will reduce their frequency of maintenance foods. This crucial transition phase tests your child’s ability to eat allergens in varied amounts less frequently.
Remember that routine exposure is key in keeping the tolerance your child has built up during the program.
Overview
What is Tolerance?
Tolerance is the ability to consume large and infrequent amounts of food proteins on a regular basis, resulting in zero activation of allergic pathways. This is when our treatment goals are realized!
Why are there Tolerance Visits?
During the challenge cycles your child needed to consume daily exposures to proteins. In the next stage of TIP™, your child will undergo a systematic transition away from daily protein exposure and will reduce their frequency of maintenance foods. This crucial transition phase prepares their immune system for successful sustained immune unresponsiveness during Remission .
