When I was two years old, I ate some chocolate at a restaurant, and when I got home I was throwing up so my mom instantly knew something was wrong. Her instinct was right and I was soon diagnosed with a tree nut allergy. When I was four, I was diagnosed with a peanut allergy as well. When I was around seven, I was able to successfully do the peanut challenge and I’m no longer allergic to peanuts, but as for tree nuts, I still am allergic to all of them.
FARE (Food Allergy Research & Education) has always been a super helpful source in learning more about food allergies!
