It’s every parent’s worst nightmare. One moment their child is perfectly healthy. The next, they’ve stopped breathing and are turning blue. For many children, the merest hint of nut is all it takes to send them into anaphylactic shock. Food allergies are on the increase and the number of children affected has more than doubled in the past ten years. Yet simple precautions could significantly cut the death rate. This week’s documentary, ‘When Food Kills’ is a wake up call to the rising danger of food allergies.

Stress, there is alot more stress involved in today’s world, It is breaking down the immune system as is the amount of neglect parents give now days, growing children don’t have full meals, and more and more corporations are throwing random into food because it makes it (taste) better thus more .money.
It is by far the root of ALL problems.
