U.S. health officials approved a nasal spray to treat severe allergic reactions, the first needle-free alternative to shots like EpiPen. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said it approved the spray from drugmaker ARS Pharmaceuticals Inc. as an emergency treatment for adults and older children experiencing life-threatening allergic reactions known as anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis occurs when the body's immune system develops a sudden, unexpected reaction to a foreign substance, such as food, insect stings or medications. Common symptoms include hives, swelling, itching, vomiting and difficulty breathing. The device, marketed as Neffy, could upend treatment for the 33 million to 45 million Americans with severe allergies to food and other triggers. Anaphylaxis sends more than 30,000 people to emergency rooms and results in more than 2,000 hospitalizations and more than 230 deaths in the U.S. each year. Of the 6 million prescriptions written for auto-injectors each year, more than 40% are never filled, Dr. Thomas Casale, an allergist at the University of South Florida, told an FDA advisory panel last year. Even when they are available to caregivers, many auto-injectors are used incorrectly, he said. "There's a real unmet medical need for a large portion of the population," he said. Neffy is intended for people who weigh at least 66 pounds. It is given in a single dose sprayed into one nostril. A second dose can be given if the person's symptoms don't improve. The new treatment could be life-changing for people with severe food allergies, said Dr. Kelly Cleary, a pediatrician and director at the Food Allergy Research & Education, a nonprofit advocacy group. Requiring an injection in an emergency is as scary to some children as the allergic reaction itself. Some parents have had to restrain thrashing children to inject them, sometimes causing cuts that require stitches. About 3,500 caregivers a year are injured when they accidentally inject themselves in the hands, ARS said. Neffy is designed to be easy to carry and easy to use, especially for children, said Richard Lowenthal, president and chief executive of San Diego-based ARS. "We don't want fear. There's no needle, there's no pain with this product," he said. "It's basically like spraying saline into your nose." This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Scientists at McMaster University say they've discovered a cell that remembers allergic reactions and triggers an immune response. Some experts say the finding could be the key to future treatments for people living with food allergies. 

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently said that by law food makers are permitted to add sesame to their products. They also must identify sesame content in their foods on product packaging. Sesame is the seed of the sesamum or benne plant. It is used to make oil and the seeds themselves are often used on bread or baked goods. The seeds come in black and white colors. Sesame is used in many foods to add a nutty flavor or some crunch. But the American non-profit group, the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), says about 1.6 million people are allergic to the seeds. Someone who is allergic can get very sick after eating the seeds. People with the allergy usually learn to stay away from traditional foods that contain sesame.美国食品和药物管理局（FDA）最近表示，根据法律，食品制造商可以在其产品中添加芝麻。 他们还必须在产品包装上标明食品中的芝麻含量。芝麻是芝麻或芝麻植物的种子。 它用于制造油，种子本身通常用于面包或烘焙食品。 种子有黑色和白色。芝麻用于许多食品中以增加坚果味或松脆感。但美国非营利组织公共利益科学中心 (CSPI) 表示，约有 160 万人对这些种子过敏。 过敏的人吃了种子后可能会病得很重。 患有过敏症的人通常会学会远离含有芝麻的传统食物。The CSPI is protesting to the FDA about a law that went into effect in January. The Food Allergy Safety, Treatment, Education, and Research Act, known as FASTER, listed sesame as a major allergen requiring identification on packaging for the first time.↳ Some food companies made changes to their production centers in reaction to the new law. Some cut sesame use completely. Others, however, decided to add sesame to products that did not usually contain it. As long as they identified the sesame on the food packaging, they were obeying the law fully. The CSPI and other organizations argue that adding sesame to foods that did not contain it in the past limits food choices for allergic people.CSPI 就 1 月份生效的一项法律向 FDA 提出抗议。《食品过敏安全、治疗、教育和研究法案》（FASTER）首次将芝麻列为主要过敏原，需要在包装上进行标识。为了应对新法律，一些食品公司对其生产中心进行了调整。 有的完全切芝麻。 然而，其他人决定在通常不含芝麻的产品中添加芝麻。 只要他们识别出食品包装上有芝麻，就完全遵守了法律。CSPI 和其他组织认为，在过去不含芝麻的食物中添加芝麻限制了过敏人群的食物选择。Some food companies say it is too hard to prevent sesame from getting into some products, or it is too costly to change their production centers. It is easier to add sesame and identify it legally. Some restaurants are also adding sesame to their foods and noting it on menus or meal listings in order to meet the requirements of the food law. Robert Earl is a food safety advocate. He said the practice will put people with food allergies in danger of getting sick. “It puts our community at greater risk,” he said. Earl added that food companies and restaurants adding sesame to products reduces food choices.一些食品公司表示，很难阻止芝麻进入某些产品，或者改变生产中心的成本太高。 添加芝麻更容易合法识别。一些餐馆还在食物中添加芝麻，并在菜单或餐单上注明，以满足食品法的要求。罗伯特·厄尔 (Robert Earl) 是一位食品安全倡导者。 他说这种做法将使食物过敏的人面临生病的危险。 “这使我们的社区面临更大的风险，”他说。 厄尔补充说，食品公司和餐馆在产品中添加芝麻会减少食物的选择。Earl said his organization – Food Allergy Research and Education – has received a number of complaints from people who said they got sick by eating formerly “safe” products. Ruchi Gupta is a children's doctor at Northwestern University. She is director of the Center for Food Allergy and Asthma research there. Gupta called the FDA's decision “disappointing,” and noted that the food company and restaurant changes are permitted by law. However, she said she hoped the FDA would have “come out in a way to try to discourage” putting sesame in unusual products. Robert Califf leads the Food and Drug Administration. In a message posted online in 2023, he wrote about companies adding sesame to their foods. He called it “a practice with an outcome we do not support.” He said it does not break any rule but that it “limits options for consumers who are allergic to sesame.”厄尔说，他的组织——食物过敏研究和教育——收到了许多人们的投诉，他们说他们因为吃了以前“安全”的产品而生病了。鲁奇·古普塔 (Ruchi Gupta) 是西北大学的儿童医生。 她是那里食物过敏和哮喘研究中心的主任。 古普塔称 FDA 的决定“令人失望”，并指出食品公司和餐厅的改变是法律允许的。 然而，她表示，她希望 FDA 能够“采取某种方式阻止”在不寻常的产品中添加芝麻。罗伯特·卡利夫 (Robert Califf) 领导食品和药物管理局。 在 2023 年在线发布的一条消息中，他写到了一些公司在食品中添加芝麻的情况。 他称其为“我们不支持这种做法的结果”。 他表示，这并没有违反任何规则，但它“限制了对芝麻过敏的消费者的选择”。He also noted that consumers should “check the label every time you buy a food product – even if you have eaten it before and didn't have an allergic reaction.” The F.D.A. also said companies cannot use language like “may contain sesame” if the product does not contain it. Peter Lurie heads the CSPI. He said he hoped the FDA's recent statements would send a message to food companies. He said “it's on the companies to act responsibly,” if the FDA is not going to force them to make changes.他还指出，消费者应该“每次购买食品时检查标签——即使你以前吃过它并且没有过敏反应。”FDA 还表示，如果产品不含芝麻，公司就不能使用“可能含有芝麻”之类的语言。Peter Lurie 是 CSPI 的负责人。 他说，他希望 FDA 最近的声明能够向食品公司传达一个信息。 他说，如果 FDA 不强迫他们做出改变，“公司就有责任采取负责任的行动”。

Beyond the cries, the toys, and the snot, some of the common conversations when it comes to children are asthma, allergies, and their vaccination series. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 8% (or over 6 million) of American children have asthma, a chronic inflammatory airway disease. According to the Food Allergy Research and Education, almost 6 million children under the age of 18 have food allergies; that's about one to two children in every thirteen-person classroom! Ever heard of the infamous peanut and shellfish allergies for children that they are taught to know and inform food servers about when eating outside? And the most divisive topic of them all (and much more so over the past two years): vaccinations. Though different vaccine series for infants and children, like Hepatitis A and B, MMR, and DTap/Tdap, have been known for the past decades, the raging news of pediatric immunizations against COVID-19 has truly stirred dinner (and social media) table talks. With our pediatric population being so vulnerable, we truly need an expert opinion! Beyond honored to have one on board for our episode today: double-board certified pediatric allergist and immunologist, Dr. Manisha Relan.Receiving her bachelor's degree in Nutrition and Food Sciences from Wayne State University in 2004, attaining her medical degree from Wayne State University School of Medicine in 2008, completing her Pediatrics residency at Strong Memorial Hospital of the University of Rochester in 2011, and further fulfilling an Allergy and Immunology fellowship at SUNY at Buffalo in 2014, Dr. Relan is currently practicing in Central New York where she manages the care of children, prevents illness exacerbation, and ensures the preservation of life within the realm of allergic, respiratory, and immunologic diseases.What are the most common allergies that kids have? Does childhood asthma truly remain in childhood or is it just "quiescent" until a trigger during adulthood sparks the condition once more? Do children's immune systems truly differ from that of adults and, if so, how does this affect reaction to vaccinations? How important is the vaccination series for pediatrics, such as for Hepatitis A and B, MMR, and DTap/Tdap? What happens when the pediatrics specialist has a different thought on what is "best" for a child compared to that of their parents? Having spent almost two decades delving into the science and management of allergies and the immune system, Dr. Relan gives her thoughts on the most controversial topics regarding our young ones not only as a doctor but also as a mother. The best of both worlds!Livestream Air Date: September 29, 2021Dr. Manisha Relan: IG @pedsallergymd & @101beforeoneFriends of Franz: IG @friendsoffranzpodChristian Franz (Host): IG @chrsfranz & YT Christian Franz

On this episode, Son talks about his food allergies to certain tree nuts and certain seeds like sesame and sunflower seeds. We talk about what food allergies are, how he manages his food allergies at school, how he keeps himself safe with his Epipen and that one time he was Epipenned years ago at daycare. Finally, we play a quick multiple choice game about food allergies. In this episode, we talked about: 1. What is a food allergy? There are the "Big 8" allergens that companies in the US must report on in food labels. Milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat and soybeans. 2. We go off on a tangent and talk about Soy Butter (we buy Wowbutter at home) versus Peanut Butter sandwiches. 3. Son talks about his food allergies to tree nuts and certain seeds (sesame seeds and sunflower seeds). 4. We talk about managing food allergies when he was in grammar school and challenges sitting at the "peanut-free table". 5. We go off on another tangent reminiscing about Beyblades and its popularity when Son and his friends were in 1st and 2nd grade. 6. We get back on track to talk about how managing food allergies works now in Middle School and how the lunch staff does not have the right training to communicate to kids with allergies. 7. Son talks about when to use an Epipen, how to use an Epipen and what do do after using an Epipen. Epipens are an important part of Son's care plan and can also cost a lot of money. Here are some resources to help you get Epipens at a reduced cost. 8. We talk about that horrible experience at daycare when Son was 3 when he was given hummus and had to be Epipenned. 9. We play a quick game. Four multiple choices about allergens in every day foods. Please note, we are not physicians or properly trained to dispense medical advice.

Today on the show I am talking about one of the possible root causes of your endo belly – coeliac disease. Now, before you turn this podcast off because you think you don't react to gluten, I am literally begging you to listen.  I have noticed a trend in my clients to dismiss coeliac disease as a possibility, because they don't have immediate reactions after gluten. But – here's the thing, the reactions from gluten are not always obvious and they don't always happen straight away.  So, if you're bloated all the time, tired all the time, maybe you have diarrhoea regularly or gas, or constipation, or maybe you don't have any gut symptoms at all – but you have brain fog, fatigue and achy joints, then it may be down to coeliac disease.  And these symptoms don't just have to occur after straight after gluten. In fact, according to the Food Allergy Research and Resource Program at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, coeliac disease is a “delayed hypersensitivity reaction where symptoms develop 48-72 hours after ingestion” of gluten.(1) Now yes, some people with coeliac disease will experience symptoms soon after eating gluten, but for others, it's a couple of hours or even longer, as demonstrated here. So just because your symptoms do not show up straight after gluten, that doesn't mean you do not have coeliac disease and in fact, if you tend to eat gluten daily, and you tend to feel unwell daily – maybe you have chronic fatigue, for example - then this could be the result of that delayed reaction, just blurring into the next, because there's little time between each serving.  Additionally, the NHS states that symptoms can actually be mild and can come and go, so the signs of coeliac disease may be inconsistent(2). Your reactions to gluten do not have to be severe for you to have coeliac disease, for example, my brother was hospitalised with severe abdominal cramping and vomiting when he was diagnosed, whereas my sister literally said she was just “fed up of feeling nauseas”. And here's why it's important to get checked.  In the UK, only 30% of people with coeliac disease have been diagnosed(3), and it is estimated that 500,000 people are walking around with undiagnosed coeliac disease.(4)  In America, 83% of people with coeliac disease are undiagnosed.(5) And it's not rare either. In the UK, 1 in 100 people have coeliac disease (3) and in the USA, 1 in 133 people have coeliac disease.(5) And as you can see from these stats, the majority of them don't know they have it. And if you have endometriosis, the chances of having coeliac disease is higher. Research has identified a strong  association between endometriosis and coeliac disease. Coeliac disease patients were found to be almost twice as likely to develop endo in research(6) and studies have found that people with endometriosis are significantly more likely to develop coeliac disease.(7) To add to that, coeliac disease is a co-condition of small intestine bacterial overgrowth(8), which is a condition where normal bacteria which should be found in the large intestine, are growing in the small intestine. And SIBO is at present, estimated to affect up to 80% of people with endometriosis(9) and is a root cause of the endo belly, because the signature SIBO symptom is bloating. So, if you have endometriosis and SIBO, this is a really strong indicator that you should get tested. Additionally, in a study of over 200 women with endo, 75% experienced a reduction in symptoms after eliminating gluten for 12 months.(10) That doesn't mean you have to be as strict as someone with coeliac disease if you don't have it, as people with coeliac disease have to avoid cross-contamination, so literally they have to have separate food prep areas, chopping boards, etc. But not eating gluten containing foods may make a significant difference to life with endo.  Now, clearly, this isn't for everyone. For some people in this study, it didn't help, and we have to be careful when we talk about eliminating foods, as it can be triggering and cause issues with disordered eating, so I am not saying to just go and cut out gluten today. In fact, I actually advise against that – at least until you've been tested for coeliac disease! Then if you don't have it, I advise you work with someone to identify if gluten is a problem for your endo personally or take one of my courses where I teach you how to do that yourself, and as you guys know, The Endo Belly Course is currently open for enrolment now. So now you know the prevalence rates of coeliac disease, I thought I'd take you through some of the signs. Now, gut symptoms are often common symptoms, but  some people don't have these at all and in fact, they have other symptoms that may be seemingly random or connected to endometriosis, so they dismiss the possibility of it being coeliac disease. So today, I want to take you through some surprising signs of coeliac disease to look out for: 1) Rashes. Number one is rashes and specifically, a rash called dermatitis herpetiformis. My brother developed this, but my sister didn't, and the rash turned up probably a year or more before his gut issues arrived and it's actually common for people who have the rash, to not have the gut symptoms (though this isn't always the case). The rash looks like blisters on the skin, and is itchy, red, and tends to occur on the elbows (which is where my brother had it), knees and glutes. It is only a rash that appears in coeliac disease patients and is caused by gluten, it is not a rash anyone could get and is not caused by herpes, however, it does look like the herpes virus! Of course, if you have a rash like this and you have some of the other symptoms of coeliac disease, it's worth testing for it, but you can also get a biopsy to confirm whether this is dermatitis herpetiformis.(11) 2) Number two is dental problems. Now this tends to occur if the coeliac disease developed as a child (and just be mindful that coeliac disease can develop at any age!) due to the body being unable to absorb enough nutrients due to the damage in the intestines and from my understand, also as a result of the immune reactions. Dental problems can occur as issues with the enamel and can look like discolouration, patches on the teeth, translucent areas, grooves on the teeth and potentially increased cavities. Additionally, the growth of adult teeth can be delayed too.(12) 3) Number three is mouth ulcers(13), and these would be on the side of the mouth, on the cheeks and tongue, not on the lips – so we're not talking about cold sores. These won't occur in everyone, but if they do, they'll usually be recurring and you may have a few at one time. Again, this is thought to be a result of the nutrient deficiencies and immune response to the gluten.  4) Number four is anaemia, either b12 or iron deficiency induced anaemia or both(14). And this is tricky, because this is also a sign of SIBO!(15) So again, it's easy to dismiss coeliac disease here. B12 and iron deficiency anaemia will cause symptoms like tiredness, dizziness, shortness of breath, heart palpitations, numbness in the hands and feet, mouth ulcers, brain fog and irritability to name a few.(16,17) I've linked to the NHS page for symptoms in the show notes.  You can fairly easily get tested for these through your GP or online testing sites like Thriva in the UK, and I've linked to a few of them(18). If your levels are low but not deficient, it's still worth ruling out coeliac disease, because they have to get low to get deficient and if you've only just recently developed coeliac disease, it may take some time for your levels to drop. And on top of that, if you have the presence of gut problems, endo belly or any of the other symptoms I've listed, and you have low levels of iron and B12, it's safer just to rule it out. 5) Number five is infertility or reoccurring miscarriages, and I think this is an important one to raise because we often dismiss fertility problems as a symptom of endometriosis.  Now if coeliac disease is diagnosed and treated (as in, a person sticks to a strictly gluten free diet, which is the only form of treatment there is) then fertility rates return to normal and are equal to someone without coeliac disease. The problem is when it's left undiagnosed, and in fact, the guidance in the UK is that people who have recurring miscarriages or fertility struggles should be tested. I mean I think they should be tested as soon as the difficulty begins, to save people all that heartache, but I guess it costs the NHS less this way. There are numerous reasons why coeliac disease will affect fertility, from disrupting hormones, causing inflammation in the body, nutrient deficiencies and so on. But the bottom line is, the only way to treat it would be with a diagnosis and an adherence to a gluten free diet.(19)  6) Number six is brain fog(20). Coeliac disease patients often report brain fog and fatigue and research confirming these reports, with MRI scans showing brain changes and damage in people with coeliac disease. This brain fog may be accompanied by memory loss, headaches, and even balance or speech problems.  One small study found a significant improvement in patients with CD and cognitive impairment after a year on a strict gluten free diet(21), so there is definitely hope if this is a symptom you have and you're diagnosed!  And I thought I'd raise this one because so many of us report brain fog with endometriosis, and whilst there are many root causes behind this (in fact, I have a whole episode on them) often we just dismiss it as something we have to live with. So those are a few symptoms that you may not suspect would be behind coeliac disease – and these can all occur with or without gut problems and the endo belly. Some other signs to look out for include the development of autoimmune conditions like hashimoto's thyroiditis, type 1 diabetes (which my brother developed) and osteoporosis(22). So now let's move onto testing. To accurately test for coeliac disease, you must be eating gluten daily, at least twice a day, for six weeks(23). This is because the immune system will create antibodies against gluten and that's what's being measured. If you're not eating gluten at all or not regularly, you'll get a false negative test, even if you have the disease. So, if my brother tested today, he would come up as negative, because he hasn't eaten gluten for several years.  Once you've done the blood test, you'll then also be sent for a biopsy.  If you're still not sure whether it's worth getting tested, I've linked to an online assessment in the show notes, which will literally create a letter to take to the doctor, if it advises you to get tested, based on your symptoms.(24)  So that's it! If you have the endo belly, full stop, I advise you to get tested. And if any of these other symptoms sound familiar, I advise you to get tested too! Left undiagnosed, coeliac disease can cause serious health problems and increase your risk of multiple conditions and chronic diseases(24), and we've never lived in a better time to be gluten free, so even though it might be a hassle to get tested, it'll be worth it in the long run.  I've also linked to some gluten free courses and cookbooks in the show notes.(25) Listen and subscribe on your favourite player or listen directly/download MP3 here or just listen below!

We are honored to have a driving force for the food allergy community, Priscilla Hernandez, join this week's episode. Her mission is to enlighten and educate people about food allergies, and she is succeeding in multiple ways. Her son, Zachy, has been diagnosed with multiple food allergies, and she shares their food allergy journey from Zacky's diagnosis to her advocacy work. She was astounded by the complexity of the school system and saw an opportunity to provide a solution. With her background in nonprofits and working directly with legislators and on education policy, she drafted 'Zacky's Bill.' The bill's purpose is to create guidelines for local education agencies to protect pupils with food allergies. Priscilla also does advocacy work with Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE), and Zacky and the Hernandez Munoz Family are featured in Zacky's Kitchen:-Our Family Recipes on FARE's Living Teal Network. She is also authoring a children's book series, 'Super Zachy,' and the first is expected soon. Priscilla and Shandee talk about strategies of teaching a child to self-advocate. Priscilla also shares her advice on how to get involved and make a voice for yourself.Keep up on all that the Hernandez Munoz family is doing from their website: https://www.zackysuniverse.com/.

Genetically modified crops can offer a range of environmental and health benefits, such as reduced usage of chemical pesticides, improved farm efficiency and crop yields, and an enhanced nutritional profile. Despite this, fears surrounding genetic modification have led to a lack of acceptance of these foods by many consumers, regulators, and governmental organisations. Dr Richard Goodman from the Food Allergy Research and Resource Program at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, is helping to shift the narrative around genetically modified crops, through his extensive work evaluating their safety.

Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE) CEO Lisa Gable sits down with Mission: Readiness National Director Ben Goodman to speak about the disturbing rise in food allergies and why trends could impact military readiness. Later, General Gross speaks with the former Adjutants General of Arkansas and Michigan, Major General (Ret.) Bill Wofford, USA and Major General (Ret.) Tom Cutler, USAF, about progress on a long-awaited Child Nutrition Reauthorization.

My guest today is Jonathan Cane. If you've been a fan of reality television in any capacity in the last two decades, on some level you have Jonathan to thank. He's played the role of TV development executive or producer for the likes of Discovery, MTV, A&E, Travel Channel, Bravo, oh man the list goes on. His keen reality sensibilities have created award-winning series on which you've likely been hooked and probably binged. But, before we blame Jonathan for our collective sloth and the Kardashians, listen up. He's currently playing the role of food hero. Jonathan has shifted into the role of Creative Director for Food Allergy Research and Education, otherwise known as FARE, a nonprofit organization that focuses on empowering individuals with allergies to live safe and productive lives. So, wanting to see folks eat well is something we share. That and we were both clever enough to earn a degree at NYU. Here's our chat.

Food Allergy advocate and blogger, Natalie Rhone, has dedicated her life to advancing food allergy research and searching for better treatments. We were honored to have her on the show to discuss her knowledge and expertise around anaphylactic food allergies. We started by asking her about her journey with food allergies. From the age of 15, Natalie started developing life-threatening allergies to almost every food. We then explored the issues and inaccuracies around skin prick testing. In this episode, you will also learn about the Tolerance Induction Program (TIP), an emerging form of food allergy treatment. Natalie explained the differences between TIP and Oral Immunotherapy. She also provided insights on the benefits of TIP and how it is uniquely tailored to a patient’s data. Listeners will get a better understanding of the concept called “protein matching.”

Lisa also gave us a better understanding of the ongoing efforts to create policies that benefit those living with food allergies.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising manufacturers to declare sesame on labels of all food products that contain it. Under current FDA guidelines, manufacturers are not required to include sesame on the label if it is used as flavoring or if it is made into a paste. Only products that use whole sesame seeds are required to show the ingredient on the label. The proposal is meant to help warn people who are allergic to sesame. Currently, manufacturers only need to label eight major food allergens on products, specifically milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, and soybeans. The FDA's call to put sesame on labels follows a request it issued two years ago. The agency wanted more information regarding the prevalence and severity of sesame allergies in the United States so it could determine whether or not sesame should be considered a major food allergen. Data showed that nearly one million Americans are allergic to sesame. Its exact prevalence is still unknown, but previous studies estimate that sesame allergies are almost as common as fish and soy allergies. Researchers said that compared to milk and egg allergies that people often outgrow, a sesame allergy affects children and adults in the same way. Its symptoms include hives, vomiting, redness, and itchiness around the lips. In severe cases, it can lead to anaphylaxis, a life-threatening allergic reaction that can cause a sudden decrease in blood pressure and difficulty in breathing. Several experts have weighed in on the FDA recommendation. Dr. Jennifer Ashton, a medical correspondent to an American news station, said that the agency's recommendation is a step toward raising awareness about sesame allergies. Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE), a non-profit group dedicated to food allergies, agrees that sesame must be declared on labels and that the FDA should recognize it as a major food allergen.

The Food Institute Podcast welcomes Lisa Gable, CEO of Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE), to discuss movement in Congress on the FASTER Act, a piece of allergen-labeling legislation. In addition, the conversation covers FDA's recent voluntary sesame labeling guidance. Gable also speaks about the wide number of food allergens, the ones that most impact consumers, and what could be next for food allergy labeling.

A food allergy is a medical condition in which a person has an allergic reaction after eating a certain food. The allergic reaction occurs when the immune system attacks proteins in normally harmless foods. The proteins that trigger the reaction are called allergens. Food Allergy Research and Education estimates that 32 million Americans have food allergies, including 5.6 million children under the age 18. There is no cure for food allergies, and strictly avoiding allergens is the only way to prevent a reaction. Through education and training, foodservice professionals can provide a safe and trusted dining experience for their customers, enhancing the guest experience by understanding and appreciating their specific needs. In this video we familiarize ourselves with the top 8 most common food allergens.

Leah was like many food allergy parents stressed over how to balance work, normal family responsibilities and keeping her son safe and included at school and social activities. The support she was looking for did not exist. She left her marketing career behind and took her years of learning as a food allergy mom to become a food allergy expert. She went back to school and completed her Master's in Child and Adolescent Psychology while conducting outreach programs for the Food Allergy Research & Education Organization. In short, she became the expert she needed.This episode gives first hand insight into caretaking, and becoming the support you need!

Poetry (0:00:00)Edgar Allan Poe once said, “I would define poetry of words as the rhythmical creation of beauty”. Poetry comes in many forms and conjures many images in different people's minds. Some feel like poetry may be antiquated and irrelevant. Others look to some of the great classics. But poetry still may be applicable to us today. We have invited Erin Murphy, an author and poet who teaches English and creative writing at Pennsylvania State University to tell us about how poetry can still be relevant today. Floral Arranging (0:18:30)There's just something about a beautiful arrangement of flowers that makes everything in your house feel brighter and happier, but buying a new arrangement every time the old one withers away makes your wallet feel lighter and sadder. We've all seen the flowers in the grocery store, and while beautiful, they are nothing like the arrangements the pros do. So how can we take those flowers from the store and make them into something as fabulous as the arrangements from the flower shop? Miriam Housley, owner of Foxglove Flowers and Gifts, joins us to share her best tips for those of us at home that wish we could make floral arrangements of our own. Trip Debrief (0:34:24)Friend of the show Carrie Ann Rhodes talks with Lisa and Richie about what she learned about travelling with kids on her trip to Europe. Vision Boards (0:50:35)What is the importance of visualization in goal-setting? How important are those quotes that people put up all over their home as a form of motivational speech? Well, seeing images and words that inspire you to set goals might be the key to unlocking your full potential. Many people have explored the idea of a “vision board” and how this helps us with the law of attraction. So how can you start to visualize the life that you want? Today we are talking with Jack Canfield, founder of Chicken Soup for the Soul publishing empire, about vision boards. Monster Mash: Witches (1:10:03)Welcome to Monday Monster Mash! Every Monday this month, we're going to be doing a little deep dive into the creepiest monsters of Halloween. This week our monster guestis a little more rooted in history than some others, but in the idea of pop culture they cackle, make spooky potions and ride broom sticks... That's right! Witches. From our history with the Salem Witch Trials to kooky family flicks like Hocus Pocus—witches have long been in the forefront of our idea of a good spook. Here to help us understand both a little bit more about the history and science behind them, is Dr. Frank McAndrew, social psychologist and creep expert. The Teal Pumpkin Project (1:25:23)Imagine this. Your son or daughter gets all excited to go trick-or-treating with their friends. They get dressed up, go out and collect piles of candy, and then they realize that the majority of their candy will make them severely ill so they have to sit and watch everyone else enjoy theirs with nothing for them. This is the sad reality for many children with allergies around this time of year. But what can we do to change that? Lisa Gable is is the CEO of FARE, Food Allergy Research and Education, the founders of The Teal Pumpkin Project. She is with us to sharehow we can all have a more inclusive Halloween season.

This episode opened with a brand new voice over intro from across the pond. Following the new intro, we jumped right in to the growing world of food allergies. Asha LeRay, this weeks guest owns Food Allergy Unboxed. A parent of a child with severe food allergies Asha's company provides a combination of food allergy training, as well as allergy-sensitive recipes & recipe boxes. According to Food Allergy Research and Resource Program: "A group of the eight major allergenic foods is often referred to as the Big-81 and comprises milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat and soybean. These foods account for about 90% of all food allergies in the United States and must be declared on any processed food according to the USA food allergen labeling act (FALCPA)1. In addition labeling of the Big-8 is mandatory according to EU, Canadian, Japanese and Australian / New Zealand regulations, all of which follow Codex Alimentarius recommendations.Asha, "We look at daily life routines and unbox them finding the important details while simplifying complexities of the process. We also take a look inside at emotions that we encounter as caregivers and how to keep balance through self care as part of our routines. In short...Asha helps families learn to live with food allergies so that they can focus on the joys of life!
