Summary

This study tests whether eating small, increasing amounts of boiled cashews can help children with cashew allergy tolerate roasted cashews without a severe reaction. About 75 kids aged 2 to 17 will receive either boiled cashew powder or a placebo over several months. The goal is to see if this approach can safely reduce allergy severity, though it is not a cure and ongoing management may still be needed.
