https://www.usefulscience.org/podcast/53 This week we're talking about food and allergies. Music by Solomon Krause-Imlach. Follow us on Twitter as @usefulsci, Instagram as @usefulscience, or email us at [email protected]. Show Notes When surveyed, almost 1 in 5 Americans report that they have a food allergy, but only 1 in 10 report symptoms consistent with food allergies or have received a diagnosis from a physician. This suggests that around twice as many Americans believe they have a food allergy than actually do. Foods that mothers eat regularly while breastfeeding are later more accepted by their infants.
