Managing Food Allergies - with the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America

In honor of National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month, special guest, Michele Cassalia, with the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, joins The Balancing Act to discuss food allergies.  A food allergy occurs when the body's immune system considers a certain food harmful and reacts by causing one or more symptoms. These symptoms can range from irritating, like hives, to life-threatening, like swollen airways.  Any food can cause an allergic reaction, but only eight foods cause nine out of ten reactions.  Viewers will learn those trigger foods and how to manage food allergies once identified.  A wealth of information is also available at the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America's website, www.aafa.org.
