What's Eating Our Kids? A parents' guide to food allergy, intolerance, and toxicityWhat is eating our kids? More and more of us parents are asking that question. There has been a steep increase in the number of allergic reactions and in the number of patients who can no longer tolerate food without absolute misery. Have you, as a loving parent, ever felt helpless in your struggles to figure out your child's food allergies, reactions, and aversions? Do you wonder why this is happening? Most importantly, I hope you haven't given up, because this book will help guide you or your child to the relief you've been waiting for.
You are not alone: I'm an allergy parent too. I have been through my son's severe eczema as a baby, dealt with a multitude of his allergies as a boy and young man, and managed the lactose intolerance of my teenage daughter. Whether you're a new or an experienced allergy parent, the emotional stresses and strains of managing your family's allergies are really challenging. What's Eating Our Kids? contains information key to understanding the causes of your suffering: food allergy, intolerance, and toxicity.
I break down the most common (and some not-so-common) food reactions and walk through the symptoms, specific medical conditions, and the diagnosis, testing, and treatment process. I wrote this book to guide parents and allergic children to and through proven solutions that will ease their allergies, reactions, and the stress. You can live a normal life, even with severe allergies.
