Treating Food Allergies with Modern Medicine

About this book

Food allergy is the new epidemic of the 21st century, and the rise in incidence among kids is alarming. This information-packed book was written by a food allergy mom, a psychologist, and a physician expert in the field of food allergies. It is a comprehensive source of practical knowledge for parents, teachers, caregivers, and others who are concerned about food allergies and want to know how best to treat them. The chapters clarify which food allergy treatments are grounded in modern medicine, and provide practical information on the treatment methods that are currently available. It is a balanced, sympathetic, highly informative, and non-judgmental guide to treatment options for individuals suffering from food allergies, written in a way that cuts through the jargon and uses language that everyone can understand.
