I've heard/read (no, I don't remember where) that it can take up to 2
weeks to clear allergens from the body. I don't know how accurate this
is. My personal experience suggested more like about 3 days till the
reactions stopped - spitting up/vomitting and eczema. Of course, this
was a bit clouded becasue we didn't discover the corn intolerance until
much later in the game, so that could have scewed many results.
That sounds like an awfully long list. I knwe one other mom who's kid
had really bad intolerances to a lot of foods in her diet. Fortunately,
the kid seems to be outgrowing them quite well. Of course mine with the
shorter list seems to be holding steady :-(
