Let’s talk…about food allergies 📣

Food allergy is an immune system reaction that occurs soon after eating a certain food. For some, it can develop over time as our bodies lack certain enzymes to break down proteins in our food. Current research estimates 6-8% of children under age 3 and up to 3% of adults have some type of allergic reaction to food. You might be thinking well, what about food intolerance? Food intolerance (while annoying) is a less serious condition that does not involve the immune system.
