Hey food allergy mama! Have you ever turned down a BBQ or potluck invite just because it felt like too much? The planning, the label-checking, the explaining, the watching—it can all feel so overwhelming. Honestly, there were summers when I skipped more events than I went to. Not because I didn't want to go, but because it just felt easier to stay home than to manage all the moving pieces. In today's episode, I'm sharing a story from a few years ago—back when we were adjusting to food allergies—and just the thought of going to a block party made me want to hide. I'll walk you through how I got out of that “low” place and found a way to make social events feel more doable, even enjoyable. If you've ever felt that mix of exhaustion and loneliness when everyone else seems to be out having summer fun—this one's for you. Or maybe you just want some tips so that you don't have to avoid summer fun in the first place. Stick with me to the end, because I'm also sharing a few practical things that helped us feel more included and less overwhelmed at potlucks and BBQs. I'm cheering for you!

In this episode of Tourism Tuesday - Shenandoah County edition - Valley Today host Janet Michael visits Cakes by Ashton in Strasburg, Virginia. Joined by co-host Kary Haun from Shenandoah County Tourism, the duo sits down to talk with Ashton Simmers, the passionate owner and baker behind Cakes by Ashton. The bakery, known for its pink interior and cute decorations, offers a fully vegan and nut-free menu inspired by Ashton's personal story and mission. From her beginnings as a home-based baker, Ashton shares how her son Landon's severe food allergies motivated her to create allergy-friendly treats, leading her to culinary school and eventually to opening her own storefront. Ashton's menu is extensive, offering everything from dessert bars and cupcakes to ice cream and custom wedding cakes. “Just about anything you get at a regular bakery, with the exception of cheesecake, because I haven't perfected my recipe yet,” Ashton shares. Her products are free from animal products and nuts, welcomed by those with food allergies and those who choose a vegan lifestyle. Weekly rotations of flavors and a presence at local events keep her connected with a wide customer base. Ashton discusses the challenges and rewards of expanding from a home-based business to a brick-and-mortar store. Using her entire savings to open her shop, she emphasized both the nerve-wracking and exhilarating aspects of this journey. The store, which includes a cozy seating area and a small gift section, has become a must-visit in Strasburg. Janet and Kary wrap up their visit discussing the local business scene in Shenandoah County, highlighting the charm and accessibility of small towns like Strasburg. They note ongoing community events such as Wander Woodstock, which promotes local businesses with themed nights and live entertainment. As they chat, they encourage listeners to explore these neighborhoods and support small, locally owned shops that contribute to the unique character of the region. Whether you're planning an event that needs catering or simply want to enjoy a delectable treat in a friendly, inclusive environment, Cakes by Ashton is a name to remember. For those eager to try her offerings or order custom treats, Ashton can be contacted via Facebook Messenger or through her website, cakesbyashton.com.

In this raw and eye-opening episode of Don't Eat Poop!, our hosts Matt and Francine tackle one of the deadliest (and most misunderstood) topics in the food industry: food allergies. Prompted by a tragic case of a mislabeled cookie causing a grandmother's death, they break down how simple labeling mistakes and casual attitudes toward allergens can have lethal consequences. From cross-contact catastrophes to faux allergy fibbers, this episode dives deep into the real-life implications of allergy mismanagement in both food service and retail.Whether you're managing a restaurant kitchen, hosting kids at summer camp, or buying cookies at a supermarket, this one's a must-listen for anyone serious about food safety compliance.In this episode:

Patient advocate Lianne Mandelbaum discusses her article, "What Avarie's death in Rome teaches us about the gaps in food allergy education." Lianne reflects on the tragic death of Avarie, a young American student with a known tree nut allergy who died in Rome due to anaphylaxis, contrasting this loss with the promising advancements in food allergy research and treatment. She meticulously outlines the systemic failures in Avarie's case: despite informing the restaurant of her allergy, she was served pesto containing cashew; her first epinephrine auto-injector reportedly failed; and the responding ambulance lacked the appropriate medication. Lianne underscores how lived experience with anaphylaxis shapes risk perception and highlights the urgent need for comprehensive, lifelong food allergy education starting from a young age. This education must cover crucial skills such as safe food ordering, self-advocacy in various settings including when studying abroad, and clear emergency response protocols. She points to a pervasive societal underestimation of food allergies and calls for widespread education at all levels—for patients, families, schools, universities, the hospitality industry, physicians across specialties to ensure timely allergist referrals, and particularly for first responders to be properly equipped and trained. Lianne advocates for making the knowledge and use of epinephrine as normalized and accessible as CPR, urging the community to translate knowledge into action to prevent further avoidable deaths.

Independence, risk-taking, and peer pressure. Welcome to the teenage years with food allergies! Managing food allergies during the teen years poses new challenges. Tweens and teens are gaining independence, navigating social pressures, and taking more responsibility for their health. But this is also the stage where risky behavior peaks, and the risk for severe allergic reactions is highest. That's why clear communication and trust matter more than ever. In this episode of our Food Allergy Stages Series, Dr. Travis Miller joins Kortney and Dr. Payel Gupta to unpack how food allergy management changes from ages 12 to 18. We talk about empowering teens through shared decision-making, building trust between parents and teens, and developing essential life skills like label reading, restaurant communication, and self-advocacy. We also dive into difficult topics like bullying, alcohol, and mental health. Finally, we address why emotional support is just as important as carrying an epinephrine auto-injector. What we cover in our episode about managing food allergies in teens: Why trust matters. Teens are more likely to follow allergy routines when they feel heard and involved. Empowering independence. From grocery shopping to reading labels, this is the age to start turning over the reins. Talking about risky behavior. Alcohol and dating can put teens with food allergies at higher risk. Bullying and boundaries. Learn how to spot signs of bullying and who can help your teen feel safe and supported. Mental health and identity. Food allergies can affect confidence.

In this episode of Let's Clear the Air, Dr. Nicholas Cline talks with host Marcella Feathers about a process known as Oral Food Challenge. Used to either clear or definitively determine a food allergy, the oral food challenge takes place in a controlled setting. For folks who may have been food allergic but are now testing negative via a skin test, or for anyone who has a blood test result of 2 or less, a food challenge can provide certainty. By introducing the allergic food in small, increasing doses, your allergist can watch for reactions, such as a drop in blood pressure, hives, and wheezing, and respond accordingly.  Listen to learn more about who is a good candidate for an oral food challenge and how the certainty of a diagnosis (or lack thereof) can be empowering.

A few years ago, Australia earned the unenviable title of allergy capital of the world. This could well have been true, with a World Allergy Organisation review finding Australia had the highest rate of food allergies for children under five. But since then, something happened to turn allergy advice on its head, and parents have been introducing allergens to children at a far younger age than they used to. So, where are we at now? Explainer reporter Jackson Graham is here with us today to discuss whether the new strategy has worked.

Hey Food Allergy Mama, If you've been running on empty, pushing through the never-ending list of what your child needs to stay safe, this episode is for you. I'm not here to talk about bubble baths or mani-pedis—because let's be honest, that kind of self-care doesn't touch the mental weight we carry. I'm sharing what happened when my body finally told me to slow down. I got sick with more than a cold or flu. Nothing too serious, but it was enough to make me stop, reflect, and realize just how much I'd been carrying. If you've been brushing off your own needs, thinking you'll deal with them later, this episode will remind you how important you are.  I hope this episode is your source of encouragement and kindness this Mother's Day.  I'm cheering for you!

Robyn Lao knows first hand how challenging it can be to eat at restaurants when living with food allergies. Since her nine-year-old daughter Addie was diagnosed with several life-threatening food allergies as an infant, the family has generally avoided eating out. So when the family recently ventured out to a local restaurant for a meal, they were blown away by the clarity and transparency the menu provided regarding food allergens.That experience inspired the Lao family to introduce ADDE's bill, which would require restaurants in California to label menu items that contain any of the 9 major food allergens. Tune in now to learn more about Robyn and Addie's incredible mission to make dining out safer for the food allergy community!To learn more about the ADDE Act and how to get involved visit: www.addietellsall.comFollow along on social media @addie.tells.allRobyn is originally from San Francisco and has been an NP for over 15 years. She received her Masters in Nursing from University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) in the Pediatric Acute Care NP program and her Doctorate in Nursing Practice (DNP) degree in Healthcare Leadership from the University of San Francisco.  She was a Pediatric ICU (PICU) nurse at UCSF and started a PICU/transport NP program at UCSF as part of her doctoral project.  She has experience as a pediatric critical care nurse practitioner and has been practicing in pediatric surgery for over 10 years. She helped launch the pediatric general surgery program at Shriners Northern California, and she helped University of California Davis Children's Hospital (UCD ) become one of the first Level 1 Children's Surgery Centers verified by the American College of Surgery.  She was a past president of the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners (NAPNAP)- San Francisco chapter, and she was the founding president of the NAPNAP Sacramento Chapter.

Physical therapist and food allergy advocate Lianne Mandelbaum discusses her article, "Flying with food allergies: Combating misconceptions and advocating for safety." Sharing harrowing personal experiences with dismissive airline staff that ignited her advocacy work with No Nut Traveler, she highlights the pervasive fear and inadequate safety measures faced by food-allergic passengers globally. Lianne discusses concerning findings, such as a study showing 31 percent of passengers sometimes don't disclose allergies fearing penalties, over a third experiencing unprofessional staff behavior, 70 percent not receiving promised accommodations, and over 12 percent being removed or denied boarding. The conversation critiques misleading media coverage, the dismissal of non-fatal reactions, the alarming lack of required easy-to-use epinephrine (like auto-injectors or nasal sprays) in many airline medical kits as of 2025, and insufficient allergen labeling on U.S. flights. Lianne urges passengers to report incidents and calls upon airlines for better policies and training, and the medical community to counsel patients proactively and advocate strongly for systemic changes, including mandatory epinephrine stocking.

On the eve of the first 100 days of President Donald Trump's second administration, Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-hosts of America's Roundtable were invited by The White House Media Affairs Team for an exclusive Madia Row event in Washington, D.C. Also known as the "Food Babe," Vani Hari has spent over a decade sounding the alarm on the concerns of deceptive practices which are occurring in the food industry. According to the White House, some 30 million estimated number of American children were adversely affected with health conditions in 2022 and 3.4 million children are on ADHD medication. Further details from Vani Hari: ✔️ 1 in every 13 children have food allergies in the U.S. - which is about 2 children per classroom. ✔️ Food allergies in children increased approximately 50% between 1997 and 2011. ✔️ Every 3 minutes, a food allergy reaction sends someone to the emergency room. ✔️ New cancer cases in the U.S. increased by 36.3% between 2000 and 2021. According to critics of large food companies, there is an interesting correlation between the changes brought to the kitchen table and throughout fast food locations and restaurants with certain food ingredients (which are banned in Europe and other places around the world) and the cost of healthcare in America. The Peterson Center on Healthcare established by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation states: "Health spending totaled $74.1 billion in 1970. By 2000, health expenditures had reached about $1.4 trillion, and in 2023 the amount spent on health more than tripled to $4.9 trillion." americasrt.com (https://americasrt.com/) https://summitleadersusa.com/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @thefoodbabe @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

Did you know you could potentially reduce your baby's risk of developing food allergies by up to 80%? That's the power of early allergen introduction. Feeding a baby the top 9 allergens consistently starting between 4 to 6 months can make a life-changing difference. We're launching a brand-new series about food allergies at various stages of life. Whether you're just starting solids, navigating a new diagnosis, or in a new stage of life, this series is here to support you with evidence-based tips and real talk. In this first episode, Kortney and Dr. Payel Gupta explore how to potentially prevent food allergies before they even develop. Why do you want to know more about introducing allergens to baby? For years, parents were told to wait until toddlers were older before introducing allergenic foods. But groundbreaking research, including the LEAP, LEAP-On, and PETIT studies, turned that advice on its head.   We no longer wait to feed babies food allergens. Instead, early (around 4–6 months) and sustained exposure to top allergens like peanut and egg is recommended for all babies. In this episode, Dr. G and Kortney explain the studies, walk you through how to do it safely, and bust common myths that leave parents confused or anxious. What we cover in our episode about early allergen introduction Why guidelines changed: Learn how the LEAP & PETIT studies reshaped allergy prevention. How to introduce the top 9 allergenic foods safely, including forms that are appropriate for infants. What “sustained exposure” means and how often to serve allergens after that first taste. How eczema increases allergy risk and what transcutaneous sensitization means. What allergic signs to watch for: mild hives vs. serious allergic reactions and when to call the doctor.
