Shellfish Allergy Lifetime Risk
Shellfish allergy lifetime risk often persists into adulthood—requiring label scans for surimi and broths plus strict restaurant cross-contact caution.
Shellfish allergy lifetime risk means crustacean and mollusk allergies often persist from childhood—unlike some milk or egg allergies that many outgrow. Sauces, surimi, and Asian broths hide shellfish; iodine contrast myths do not replace allergy testing.
Restaurant fryers and steam tables are high cross-contact zones.
