Published yesterday, this podcast from The Guardian does a wonderful job summarizing what we know about food allergies. Jennifer Koplin, an associate professor at the University of Queensland, discusses the mechanics of food allergy and how factors such as genetics, migration, the environment, and even pets in the home are contributing to our growing understanding of food allergies in children.
Although she discusses food allergies from an Australian perspective, the information is applicable worldwide.
Well worth 15 minutes of your time whether you have food allergies or care for someone who does.
