Purpose of reviewA case report published in 2001 raised the possibility that some patients with long-lasting ‘nonallergic’ perennial rhinitis might in effect have food additives intolerance. The recent literature published in English was reviewed to find controlled studies able to confirm this observation. Recent findingsTwo double-blind, placebo-controlled studies published between August 2002 and July 2003 confirmed the above observation. The prevalence of additives intolerance among…

Patients with rhinitis are frequently sensitised to foods and the prevalence of sensitisation to foods is higher in patients with chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps than controls but there are no reported studies on the efficacy or effects of dietary restrictions on chronic rhinosinusitis.

Oral challenge tests established the diagnosis of systemic contact dermatitis to nickel in 3 patients and food intolerance in 10 patients, and less restrictive diets could be followed in the long term.
Chronic Rhinitis with Nasal Polyposis Associated with Sodium Glutamate Intolerance

These tests lack scientific rationale, standardisation and reproducibility, and should not be advocated in the evaluation of patients with suspected food allergy because the results do not correlate with clinical allergy and may lead to misleading advice and treatment.
Consensus meeting: monosodium glutamate – an update
- MedicineEuropean Journal of Clinical Nutrition
- 2007
The general use of glutamate salts (monosodium-L-glutamate and others) as food additive can be regarded as harmless for the whole population and further research work should be done concerning the effects of high doses of a bolus supply at presence of an impaired blood brain barrier function.

Evidence does suggest that there is a small subset of primarily younger children in whom additives will impact on behavior, and the problem appears to be much smaller than originally postulated.
