Baked and Limited Regular Milk Is Tolerated in Adults With Milk-triggered Eosinophilic Esophagitis: A Prospective Pilot Study

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic Th2 mediated condition characterized by esophageal dysfunction and histologic eosinophilic inflammation.¹ The pathogenic role of food antigens in EoE is well established, with demonstrated therapeutic efficacy of elimination diet strategies.^2,3 Although effective in up to 95% of patients, elemental diet compliance is poor.² Similarly, a 6-food elimination diet (SFED) is effective in approximately 70% of patients with EoE but long-term adherence may be limited.^3-6.
