Abstract

A severe health problem brought on by increased cashew nut use and dietary and cooking changes is cashew nut allergy. It is brought on by the use of trace amounts of Ana-o 3, Ana-o 1, and Ana-o 2 allergens from cashew nuts. Enzymatic processing, oral immunotherapy, and adrenaline auto-injector devices are effective treatment options. The labelling of foods containing cashew nuts is crucial for prevention
