There are MILLIONS of kids with food allergies in the US, and in Canada, 1 in 2 households are impacted by food allergies. This is a huge topic and I’m thrilled to have one of the foremost experts, Dr. Rania Nasis, on to talk about what allergies are, and what we can do to support kids with allergies and their parents.

In this episode, Rania and I talk about the basics of allergies and what qualifies as an allergy - it’s an immune response to the food that’s life threatening. We also talk about the difference between allergies and sensitivities.

Food allergies are on the rise and there are actually ways you can prevent them. A 2015 study concluded that introducing food allergens earlier in a child’s life can prevent severe allergies.

The reality is, that if you have a child with allergies, you face added stress, worry and work to keep them safe. As a community, we all need to be a part of the solution and normalize food allergies so our kids don’t feel excluded because of their differences. With the holidays upon us, there are lots of opportunities to do things differently so everyone feels included.
