    I’m probably wrong, but maybe microdosing could help you not die from 5% crab. But you gotta do it with a doctor, and it can be expensive. On the upside, you could get so sick of eating crab that you won’t need to worry about your allergy again.

      Immunotherapy for allergies uses literally microscopic doses of allergens to avoid triggering a reaction. It’s not really possible to consume an amount small enough to get the same effect.
