11 Agenda Food Allergies Nutrition and Wonders Harvest of the Month

12 On Average 1 2 students in every classroom, in every school in our country are at risk for a life threatening reaction to a food allergy

13 True or False? Individuals with food allergies can safely eat very small amounts of allergenic foods.

14 Allergy Immune response the immune system recognizes a protein as enemy rather than friend A chain reaction of chemical events ensues leading to release of factors that can cause symptoms as benign as an itchy throat, all the way to full cardiovascular collapse Typically occurs within 2 hours of ingestion of allergen May effect multiple organ systems and a multitude of symptoms - GI, Skin, Respiratory, Cardiovascular Not all reactions are the same, can change with each exposure, and can worsen over time

15 Does not involve the immune system Typically effects GI it s a processing disorder the body doesn t have adequate machinery to break down the offending food Often involves carbohydrates like lactose or other naturally occurring sugars, and some proteins like those in wheat or other grains Typical symptoms are bloating, belly ache, nausea, diarrhea Symptoms can occur many hours after ingestion Can be temporary after illness, antibiotics, or other medications Often symptoms are worse the more that is ingested Not life threatening Intolerance

16 Allergy vs. Intolerance Allergy Intolerance Immune System involved Immune system NOT involved Symptoms in multiple organs Symptoms typically GI only Tiny amounts can cause severe symptoms Larger amounts create worse symptoms Can be Life Threatening NOT life threatening Involves a protein 99.99% of time Can be from carbohydrates, protein, fats or alcohol Rarely mistaken Often mistaken for/mislabeled as Allergy

17 True or False? Individuals with food allergies can safely eat very small amounts of allergenic foods.

18 The Top 8 Allergens 90% of reactions are caused by these 8! But ANY protein has the potential to cause a food allergy.

19 What a CHILD might say..before YOU see It feels like something is poking my tongue. My tongue (or mouth) is tingling (or burning). My tongue (or mouth) itches. My tongue feels like there is hair on it. My mouth feels funny. There s a frog in my throat; there s something stuck in my throat. My tongue feels full (or heavy). My lips feel tight. It feels like there are bugs in there (to describe itchy ears). It (my throat) feels thick. It feels like a bump is on the back of my tongue (throat).

20 How do Allergens enter a Body? MOUTH accidental ingestion the route for possible anaphylaxis EYES allergen on hands, touching the eyes, absorption into the bloodstream typically causes local reaction swelling, itch. Anaphylaxis can occur, but is rare SKIN allergen touches skin itch, swelling, redness Never life threatening, can t cause anaphylaxis

21 How do Allergens enter a Body? NOSE inhalation of an allergen that is airborne Hay fever reactions may occur itchy watery eyes and nose, sneezing Smelling an allergen may induce anxiety in the allergic person, but unlikely to cause significant reaction Exception may be airborne protein released with frying or boiling fish/shellfish

22 What if I give Epi and I cause harm? You will NOT cause harm, and Epi is EASY to administer Epinephrine for the treatment of anaphylaxis has NO contraindications Adverse effects are mild and short lasting Typical side effects are paleness, palpitations, nausea, sweating, headache, shakiness Prevents a potentially fatal anaphylactic event

23 Strategies for Prevention Reasonable accommodations include: Food free classrooms Child may carry emergency medication Provide in class education for other students Hand washing of all students when returning from meals/snacks Letter home to classmates families

24 And what works for cleaning? Detergent & friction are adequate for removal on: Surfaces Hands *Sanitizer does NOT remove allergens*

25 Food labels Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA), of January 1, 2006, requires that the labels of foods containing major food allergens (milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat and soy) note the allergen in plain language, either: -the word Contains followed by the name of the major food allergen for example, Contains milk, wheat OR - in the ingredient list in parentheses for example, albumin (egg)
