All of us eat to survive, and most of us enjoy eating. However,
recent studies have found that almost 1 in 20 young children
under the age of 5 years and almost 1 in 25 adults are allergic
to at least one food. Other studies indicate that food allergy,
especially allergy to peanut, is on the rise. As a result, more and
more people are becoming aware of food allergy, making it a
subject of increasing public concern.
When one person in a family has a food allergy, the whole
family is affected. There may be day-to-day anxiety that a loved
one may accidentally eat a food that could lead to anaphylaxis,
a dangerous allergic reaction.
