了解食物过敏的流行病学是复杂的，因为很难大规模地识别它。食物过敏的患病率在较年轻的年龄组中较高，并随着年龄的增长而下降。与南欧、东欧和亚洲相比，对花生和鸡蛋过敏似乎在北方欧洲、美国、加拿大和澳大利亚更常见，而对贝类和鱼类过敏在亚洲可能更常见。暂时性未被识别的食物过敏的发生率可能很高，对食物过敏的不同识别可能解释了食物过敏患病率的一些差异。
Understanding the epidemiology of food allergy is complicated by the difficulty of identifying it on a large scale. The prevalence of food allergy is higher in younger age groups and decreases with age. Allergy to peanut and egg seems to be more common in Northern Europe, the United States, Canada, and Australia compared with Southern Europe, Eastern Europe, and Asia, whereas shellfish and fish allergies may be more common in Asia. The rate of transient unrecognized food allergy may be high and variable recognition of food allergy may explain some of the differences seen in food allergy prevalence.
