| This summer, a groundbreaking new study funded by the Food Allergy Initiative
reported that 8 percent of American kids under the age of 18 have a food allergy.
Previous research estimated the rate at just half that (4 percent) for kids ages 4
and up. Allergic Living's Editor Gwen Smith sits down with study author Dr. Ruchi Gupta to get the story behind the alarming statistics, including a high rate of severe reactions in kids. This is a must read. |

you're going to need relief. Read
