Did You Know?

32 million
Americans suffer from food allergies

Of the 32 Million 26 million
are adults.

25% of the 26 million adults had their first food reaction as an adult.

This number increased 883% among 19 and 30-year-olds.

Did you know that anytime you eat something you are sensitive to, you are at risk and subject to a severe reaction that you are not prepared for?

Adults becoming allergic to food aren’t knowledgeable or equipped. Severity can change with every circumstance.  There is no way to tell how many times you can have small reactions before it turns into a severe anaphylaxis attack. That’s why you need to be aware and educated so you know what to look for and be prepared.
