    Positively Pomegranate

    I have food allergies and food intolerances. Even with these culinary limitations, I work toward expanding my diet whenever possible by adding new fruits, vegetables, grains, or meats.  Maybe it's a poussin, not chicken, for dinner; sauteed swiss chard instead of spinach; or quinoa replacing rice as a side dish.

If I ever eat garlic by mistake it really upsets my digestive tract causing spasms and makes it very painful to eat for 7-10days afterwards. Garlic is in so much food it is really difficult to eat... Read moreChevron

    Recently on MyAllergyNetwork.com, a reader wrote in asking about the best air filters for people with allergies. I've never used an air filter.  However, this last year, my apartment building has been undergoing a major overhaul. The building's interiors and exteriors are being refurbished and over half the units in the building have... Read moreChevron

    Sorting through Celiac Disease and Food Allergies

    I had an opportunity to attend a lecture at the 92nd Street Y here in New York City entitled: "Sorting through Celiac Disease and Food Allergies". The lecture was given by the pre-eminent celiac disease specialist Dr. Peter Green and a whip-smart (and funny) team of experts: Dr. Amy R. DeFelice, a pediatric gastroenterology doc; Anna... Read moreChevron

    Thanksgiving and Food Allergies

    "Did you have a great holiday?"   "What did you eat?"   As someone with food allergies, some people don't even want to ask me those questions for fear that I couldn't eat a thing on Thanksgiving!
