TIP Remission - Food Allergy Institute

A Body That No Longer Reacts

Remission means the immune system reaches a state we call sustained unresponsiveness — in plain terms, the allergy stops behaving like an allergy.

Patients in remission can eat their former allergens on a regular basis without any reaction — eating like a non-allergic person would. Not "manage the risk." Not "carry an EpiPen just in case." Just eat freely.

This is what sets TIP apart from every other food allergy treatment on the market. Most approaches are built around avoidance — protecting patients from accidental exposure. TIP is built around removing the reaction altogether.

The Visit That Puts Remission Within Reach

The Food Freedom Visit centers on one goal: achieving Food Freedom — the ability to eat whatever, whenever, without fear of reaction. Patients complete a final challenge with their treated allergens, consuming an amount calibrated to their individual treatment, while our team monitors closely for any response.

Passing this challenge isn't the finish line — it's the start of your next chapter. From here, treated foods stay part of the regimen for a specified period afterward, giving the immune system time to fully adjust before the next phase.

A few extra visits, if needed

Some patients need a few extra appointments to move their remaining allergens to weekly, uncapped dosing — meaning they can eat that food freely, without a measured maximum, the same way they would any regular food. Added only if your treatment plan calls for them.

Annual remission visits

Repeat labs, skin prick testing, and pulmonary function testing confirm your remission is holding strong, year after year. It's how we stay ahead of your immune system's needs and keep your care personalized for the long run.

Maintenance dosing, spaced out over time

Weekly, then every two weeks, then eventually once a month — often just a bite or two of the allergen, based on your individual response. Continuing to dose, even that minimally, is what keeps the immune system unresponsive.
