Allergic to a Helmet?
When I first heard this story, I knew I had to share it with all of you. You just never know when an allergic reaction can hit you. Thanks for reading. -Tarah How ironic that something that’s supposed to save your life (and trust me, my helmet has done this) almost...
Kathleen at Disney
We asked Kathleen back to do another blog post. You may remember her previous post was all about how she is making a difference at her college. She was invited to attend the first Food Allergy & Celiac Convention at Disney. As you know Disney takes great pride in...
Do you WOOB?
Recently I had the pleasure of meeting Michelle Lenz. She is just one of the many awesome people making a difference in the food allergy community. She has developed and created the WOOB. It is a carrying case for your Epi-pen or Auvi-Q. Here is the deal. It is...
Food allergies in college
When this Allergic Traveler was a child there was probably two children per school that had food allergies. As you know today, that number has increased and is probably now two per class. While I hate that food allergies are on the rise, I am happy to see that kids...

From Vegas to Myrtle Beach?!
I must admit this Allergic Traveler is not a big fan of Myrtle Beach. I do not mean any disrespect; I just find it over populated, both with people and commercially. I know this seems kind of ironic as I was just in Vegas and I also spend a lot of time in New York....
Vegas- Baby!
It’s hard to believe this Allergic Traveler has already been home from Vegas for almost a month now. Where does time go? I do want to share with you my travel adventures as every time I travel I learn a little something about the area and something about myself. By no...

Gluten & Allergen Free Wellness Event
