One way to avoid food allergies is to stick to the “Eight Foods to avoid” chart which includes peanuts, eggs, soy, shellfish and other foods. It is also important to carefully read food labels as products often contain hidden ingredients from one or more of these eight sources. Try not to eat unlabeled or street-vended food as well. Additionally, talking with your doctor can help you better understand what foods may be safe for you and if there are certain immunizations that can protect you from an allergic reaction in case of accidental consumption. Moreover, speak with your child’s school about having a clear allergy protocol in place and make sure your child knows what measures they need to take if they have an accidental reaction.
