Child Food Allergy

Dear Friend, Food allergies are growing at a dramatic rate, and with children, it is causing great concern. There are more than 7 million individuals living with a life threatening food allergy and a large percentage of them are a child food allergy with the most serious being from the peanut family.

Dealing with a child food allergy can be mild to life threatening. Mild allergy symptoms can upset the stomach, cause a runny nose, or a dry cough while a serious child food allergy can cause respiratory ailments and in life threatening situations anaphylactic shock. That’s why it is so important to understand what your child’s allergy is and how sever it is.

The younger the child with a child food allergy the more difficult it can be to both determine the offending food and keep the food out of their hands. When your child goes off to school, they can land up trading food with their friends, which can bring the offending food back into their diet. Schools often have events with food served and again they can land up with food they should not have.

With a mild child food allergy, you can relax a little knowing that the symptoms are more of an inconvenience than a threat. Rashes, itching, diarrhea, and upset tummy are common.

But the problem occurs with a serious child food allergy, which can even be life threatening as seen so often with nut allergies. There are two ways a food allergy can kill. The first way is from swallowing a food that causes your vocal cords to instantly swell, causing breathing to stop often before anyone realizes that there is a serious problem. The second life-threatening problem results with anaphylactic shock, which can take as much as a couple of hours to occur making it more difficult to recognize trouble is on the way. Yet it too will kill if there is no intervention.

Nuts are most common child food allergy. And often it’s not obvious nut products that get one in trouble but trace nut products that are not properly marked.

Just about every child food allergy can be treated with the help of your doctor and your observation skills. You never know when a child food allergy will be minor or serious so don’t delay.
