Fact vs Myth Food AllergiesVersión en línea

por Jennifer Jennings

“The smell of peanut butter will cause an allergic reaction in someone with a peanut allergy”

Practically any food can cause a reaction. Life threatening reactions can occur with milk, eggs, wheat and others.

“My kid would have a severe reaction, his numbers are off the charts”

“You will experience a severe allergic reaction if the food that you are allergic to touches your skin.”

Healthy skin is a good barrier. Although local skin reactions do occur, isolated contact with intact skin is very unlikely to cause an anaphylactic reaction. More severe reactions can occur if the allergen then gets in the mouth, eyes or nose.

“’Nut-free’ schools are safest ”

Advisory statements don’t mean anything. They’re just there to protect a company from liability.

Food allergens are not eliminated by hand sanitizing gels.

Comprehensive policies that include prevention and preparedness strategies that apply to all allergens are critical and cannot be replaced by attempts at specific allergen restriction.

Specific IgE testing cannot be used to predict the severity of an allergic reaction. There is currently no testing that can make this prediction.

Food allergens are not eliminated by heating and drying.

The smell of peanut butter is caused by pyrizines, which are not proteins. In most cases it is the proteins that trigger allergic reactions.

The cafeteria is the riskiest place in school

It is safest to avoid foods with advisory statements for your food allergens. Studies demonstrate that some items have detectable allergens.

Close to 10% of those requiring epinephrine in MA schools were staff or visitors

The epinephrine needle is huge

Data suggests upsizing auto-injectors at 55 lbs

“High heat eliminates allergen”

Any staff member who might interact with children with food allergies or be asked to help respond to a food allergy emergency should be trained.

The classroom is the most common place for symptoms of allergic reactions to begin

There are cases when school resources and layout support having epinephrine auto-injectors “carried” by students. In some cases these students are not developmentally capable to self-inject.

If a student self carries they must self-administer

All anaphylactic reactions are visible on the skin.

Give Antihistamine first

Epinephrine is the choice of medication for anaphylaxis

Only students will experience allergic emergencies

You need to call an ambulance because epinephrine is dangerous.

“Only staff that directly work with students need to be trained”

10 to 20 % of anaphylactic reactions have no skin reactions.

Calling an ambulance is important because if it was a bad enough reaction to need epinephrine and more treatment may be necessary.
