About 5% of children suffer from food allergies. There are approximately 160, 000 food allergy sufferers in NSW, Australia alone and hospital admissions relating to anaphylaxis has tripled over the last six years. Shopping for these children can be a nightmare especially when it comes to easy to pack snacks. Every label has to be meticulously read. Even when you have purchased something before, you have to check the label every time in case a change of ingredient has occurred or the well known "may contain traces of nuts" label has crept onto the packet of your kids favourite bikkie.
Then comes the task of searching for food for a child that has multiple food allergies such as allergies to soy, nuts and egg. This leads to long trips to the supermarket, frustration and the desire to tear ones hair out. Life wasn't meant to be this hard. Then what happens when someone is also intolerant to chemicals in foods??? It all gets so complicated.
Thank goodness Allergease is designed to help….based on the experience of being a mum of a child with multiple food allergies and an accredited practicing dietitian they have teamed up and provided a shopping and information website for people with food allergies. People can select and screen out a food that they may be allergic to. This means you can select multiple "free foods" such as "nut free", "wheat free", "soy free", "dairy free", "seafood free" and "egg free" and exclude all your allergen laden foods in one action. An added feature to this website is that it also caters for people with food intolerances. This means that people who are intolerant to chemicals such as salicylates and amines can also modify their shopping list to contain "low salicylates" or "low amines". This website is the first to recognize that people have food intolerances and offer this unique service for these people. The process of selecting out those nasty allergens or chemicals provides you with a complete shopping list of food that you can have.
