The Telegraph reports that doctors at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge have developed a therapy that retrains the immune system of food allergy sufferers so that so that they become desensitised to the food. It is emphasised that the treatment should only be carried out in a clinically controlled environment: it should not be attempted outside of a hospital research study. It would not be safe.
