Food Allergy Awareness Week

Did you know that it is Food Allergy Awareness Week?

Well, it is! Chances are that you knew that if you live with food allergies in your life but if not it might have slipped by you.

Here are a few things to keep in mind about Food Allergies from The Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network:

1.) Never take food allergies lightly.

2.) Wash your hands after eating.

3.) Never share food with someone who has food allergies.

4.) Ask what your friends are allergic to and help them to avoid those foods.

5.) If a friend becomes ill, seek help immediately.

Food allergies are no joke and while they can be managed they can be very harmful. So, it is important that we do everything that we can to help those who live with food allergies every day.

One thing you can do is REVIEW restaurants that have good accomodations for those with food allergies by either having specific menu items or the ability to be flexible with their menu items. Only at Knowledge Safari can you review restaurants and other places as to how well suited they are for those with special needs.
