Vasculitis and Food

This study outlines the cases of two children with food induced vasculitis. In an 8-year-old girl, vasculitis was found to be caused by a sensitivity to cow's milk and also to eggs.

A 23-month-old girl with vasculitis was found to be sensitive to chocolate: the vasculitis went into remission when chocolate was avoided and only returned after accidental ingestion of products containing cocoa.
