#83 Could Research Shift the Way You Feel About Food Allergy Treatments?

Send us Fan MailFood allergy research is constantly evolving, but what do these studies actually mean for families making treatment decisions?In this episode of Don't Feed the Fear, I welcome Dr. Lianne Soller Allergy Research Manager at BC Children's Hospital in Canada to help us make sense of the evidence behind food allergy immunotherapy and where the field is headed. Together, we explore some of Dr. Soller and her team's most important research findings, including what we've learned about treatment outcomes, quality of life, safety, and factors that may influence success.Rather than focusing on headlines or individual studies in isolation, this conversation highlights why becoming curious about food allergy research can help families feel more informed and confident as they navigate treatment decisions. Dr. Soller also shares insights into how research questions are developed, why evidence continues to evolve, and how families can thoughtfully interpret new findings without becoming overwhelmed.Research helps us ask better questions, but every family's decision is still deeply personal. My hope is that this conversation helps you see the value of research-informed decisions.Canadian Food Allergy Immunotherapy Foundation (FAIT): https://www.bcchildrens.ca/clinics-services/allergyBC Children's Hospital Allergy:https://www.canadianfaitfoundation.org/My new book From Fear to Freedom:https://a.co/d/0f41FxsMSpecial thanks to Kyle Dine for permission to use his song The Doghouse for the podcast theme!www.kyledine.comFind Dr. Whitehouse:-thefoodallergypsychologist.com-Instagram: @thefoodallergypsychologist-Facebook: Dr. Amanda Whitehouse, Food Allergy Anxiety [email protected]
