The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) updated their food allergen labeling guidelines. The new guidelines include changes to tree nut, milk, and egg labeling.

The guidelines took effect on Jan. 5, 2025. But foods packaged before that date may be on the shelves and have older labeling for a while. Be sure to read every label every time.

Changes to Tree Nut Labeling

The FDA has shortened their list of tree nuts. With this change, the following are tree nuts the FDA now considers to be major food allergens:

• Almond
• Black walnut
• Brazil nut
• California walnut
• Cashew
• Filbert/hazelnut
• Heartnut/Japanese walnut
• Macadamia nut/bush nut
• Pecan
• Pine nut/pinon nut
• Pistachio
• Walnut (English, Persian)

Some foods the FDA previously considered to be tree nuts will no longer be identified on labels. These foods are not actually tree nuts and are not common allergens. Having an allergy to one of these foods is rare

These include:

• Beech nut
• Bush nut
• Butternut
• Chestnut
• Chinquapin
• Coconut
• Ginko nut
• Hickory nut
• Lichee nut
• Pili nut
• Shea nut

If you manage a coconut allergy, or an allergy to any of the foods above, it’s important to know that food makers are no longer required to label them as an allergen. If you have an allergy to any of these foods, read food labels carefully and learn other names they may go by on food labels.

Changes to Milk and Egg Labeling

The FDA’s new changes expand the milk and egg labeling. Labels must now be labeled clearly if they contain milk from cows, goats, sheep, and other milk producing animals. For egg, they must list eggs from chickens, ducks, geese, quail, and other fowl.

The ingredients list must list the animal the milk or egg comes from. For example, it must say “duck egg” or “goat milk” and not just “milk.”

Shellfish Labeling

The FDA’s changes also shared details of what kind of shellfish they consider to be a major allergen. The FDA only considers crustacean shellfish to be a major allergen. This includes crab, lobster, and shrimp.

But they don’t consider mollusks, a type of shellfish, to be a major allergen. These include oysters, mussels, scallops, and clams.

“Free From” Allergen Labels

Some food makers choose to put “free from” on their packaging if their food does not have a major allergen in it. The new FDA guidelines now state that food makers can only put “free from” on packaging if the food truly does not contain a major allergen. This also means it can’t contain the allergen accidentally from cross-contact.

Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America Reaffirms Commitment to Protect Vulnerable Communities

On behalf of over 100 million people in the United States with asthma and allergic diseases, the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) is carefully monitoring and evaluating policy transitions that may affect our community’s health.

Asthma and allergies are chronic and potentially life-threatening conditions affecting almost every household: nearly 1 in 3 adults and more than 1 in 4 U.S. children have seasonal allergy, eczema, or food allergy. Asthma is the leading chronic disease in children (aside from dental cavities). In 2013, researchers estimated that asthma-related costs to society totaled $82 billion per year, a number sure to be higher today.

AAFA, founded in 1953, is the leading patient organization for people with asthma and allergies, and the oldest asthma and allergy patient group in the world.  With a track record spanning over 70 years and 13 presidential administrations, our organization is the trusted voice for the asthma and allergy community.  While each administration’s priorities differ, the priority of AAFA remains steady. Our mission is to save lives and reduce the burden of disease for people with asthma and allergies.

When new federal or state policies are proposed or enacted, we carefully analyze for potential impacts on our community. Sometimes, the immediate or long-term impacts are unknown, and so continued monitoring is required. AAFA pledges to act with integrity and provide the best information available.

AAFA’s work is critical to protect the health of children, adults, and seniors with respiratory or allergic diseases. Actions such as rollbacks of clean air protections or climate change mitigations, reduced federal funding and staffing for the HHS (FDA, NIH, CDC, CMS, OCR), elimination of programs that address health disparities, or efforts to reduce health care coverage all threaten vital safety nets and disproportionately affect our most vulnerable communities.

“AAFA provides a lifeline of support to help people with asthma and allergies,” states AAFA President and CEO Kenneth Mendez. “Our commitment to our community remains strong. As always, we endeavor to earn and keep the trust of our community and be an ally in their health.”

AAFA amplifies the voices of patients and caregivers from our community. We aim to empower people with asthma and allergies to champion policies that will improve their lives. Our membership in coalitions and alliances helps us build even stronger support for our community. AAFA’s commitment is unwavering: We will continue our fierce advocacy for policies and programs that protect the health of our community.

AAFA provides evidence-based information on a range of topics including asthma, seasonal allergies, food allergies, eczema, nasal polyps, eosinophilic esophagitis, and other allergic conditions.

Welcome to our January research update! Getting involved with research is an important way to impact food allergy treatments, education, and awareness.

This month, we are highlighting research opportunities and news on:

• Oral epinephrine
• Progress in patch treatment for peanut allergy in children
• Risk factors for food allergy in kids with eczema
• Experiences with food allergies on flights
  
  

Note: The links below will take you to external websites.

Latest Food Allergy News

FDA Confirmed Accelerated Approval Pathway for Viaskin Peanut Patch
DBV Technologies recently announced progress in the approval pathway of its Viaskin peanut patch. The peanut patch is designed for toddlers aged 1 to 3 with a peanut allergy. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirmed that the patch meets 2 key criteria for approval:

• Addressing a serious condition
• Offering a meaningful advantage over existing treatments

The patch's commercial version, which has been changed to be easier for caregivers to use, will also be evaluated in a post-market study.

DBV is also launching the COMFORT Toddlers study, a Phase 3 trial to gather more safety and adhesion data. This study will include about 480 participants across several countries and last up to 24 months. Results from both EPITOPE and COMFORT studies will support a Biologic License Application (BLA) submission to the FDA by late 2026. If approved, the Viaskin peanut patch could become a new option for managing peanut allergies, offering hope for families and caregivers seeking effective treatments.

Sociodemographic Factors Linked to Food Allergy Diagnosis Among Some Children with Eczema
A recent study of 3,365 children with atopic dermatitis (eczema) examined how socioeconomic factors and race/ethnicity influence food allergy diagnosis and testing. Researchers found large differences in access to allergist evaluations and objective food allergy testing based on race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic factors.

Hispanic children with eczema and food allergy were less likely to see an allergist compared to White or Asian children. Non-Hispanic Black children were less likely than White children to have objective food allergy testing. Also, White and Asian children were more likely to get thorough blood and skin testing compared to Black or Hispanic children.

These disparities may lead to inaccurate food allergy diagnoses, impacting children’s nutrition and quality of life. The study highlights the need to address barriers to equitable evaluation, including health care access, to ensure all children receive accurate diagnoses and appropriate care.

Managing Food Allergy on Flights
A recent global survey of over 4,700 revealed that air travel is a common source of anxiety for people with food allergies and their families. Common concerns include airlines failing to honor promised accommodations like cabin announcements, allergen-free zones, or providing allergen-free food in flight.

Also, some travelers were required to sign liability waivers or provide doctor’s notes before boarding. Anxiety also stemmed from potential confiscation or contamination of epinephrine or safe foods by airport security.

Many travelers avoided disclosing their allergies due to fear of negative consequences. As a result, over 40% of in-flight allergic reactions were not reported to airline staff and 95% were managed with passengers’ or others’ epinephrine. Positive experiences were often linked to crew members with personal food allergy knowledge, emphasizing the importance of training and empathy in airline staff. These findings highlight the need for better documentation and system-wide policies to ensure the safety of travelers with food allergy.
