Flinders Trial Tests Boiled Peanuts to Treat Peanut Allergic Children
Tumblr media
MedicalResearch.com Interview with: A/Prof Luke GrzeskowiakPhD | BPharm(Hons) | GCertClinEpid | AdvPracPharm | FSHP Associate Professor (Practitioner Fellow) Channel 7 Children’s Research Foundation Fellow in Medicines Use and Safety College of Medicine & Public Health Flinders University Affiliate Research Fellow – South Australian Health & Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI) Specialist Pharmacist – Flinders Women & Children, Flinders Medical Centre Adjunct Research Fellow – Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Monash University Adjunct Research Fellow – Robinson Research Institute, The University of Adelaide  MedicalResearch.com: What is the background for this study? Response: Peanut allergy affects 1-3% of children in Western countries, making it the most common food-related allergen. Only a small percentage (20%) of children grow out of their peanut allergy, with allergen avoidance and provision of rescue medications for the management of allergic reactions being the recognised mainstay of treatment for many years. However, avoidance of peanuts provides many challenges for children and their caregivers and requires children and caregivers to be hypervigilant regarding peanut ingestion, creating a significant burden. This burden can have a real impact on quality of life for children and their families. In more recent years there has been emerging interest in what is referred to as oral immunotherapy as an active preventive treatment to reduce the risk of accidental peanut exposure. Oral immunotherapy involves exposing children to an extremely small dose of peanut, typically in the form of peanut flour, and then gradually increasing that dose over time to build tolerance. We have been looking at opportunities for making oral immunotherapy safer, which would then make it more suitable for more people. Our previous research showed that boiling peanuts alters its protein structure and allergic properties, meaning they were less likely to cause a severe allergic reaction, but were still able to improve tolerance to peanut allergens. MedicalResearch.com: What did the trial involve? Response:  We recruited 70 children aged 6 to 18-years who had a peanut allergy and asked them to consume peanuts boiled for 12 hours for 12 weeks, 2 hour boiled peanuts for 20 weeks, and roasted peanuts for 20 weeks. The goal was to have children be able to consume 12 roasted peanuts daily at the end of the year. MedicalResearch.com: What are the main findings? Response:  The results show 56 of the 70 (80%) participants became desensitized to the target dose of peanuts. Treatment-related adverse events were reported in 43 (61%) of participants, however most adverse events were mild. Only 3 participants withdrew from the trial as a result of adverse events and 3 experienced severe allergic reactions requiring administration of epinephrine, demonstrating a favourable safety profile. MedicalResearch.com: What should readers take away from your report? Response:  Our clinical trial shows promising early signs in demonstrating that boiling peanuts may provide a safe and effective method for treating peanut allergic children with sequential doses of boiled and roasted peanuts over an extended period of time. MedicalResearch.com: What recommendations do you have for future research as a results of this study? Response: Unfortunately, oral immunotherapy doesn’t work for everyone and we are in the process of improving our understanding of how these treatments work and what factors can influence how people respond to treatment. This will be really important for assessing individual suitability for treatment and improve treatment decisions in the future. Furthermore, while the findings of our clinical trial hold great promise that current approaches to oral immunotherapy could be made safer and more effective, this requires confirmation in a larger definitive clinical trial before this approach could be recommended in practice.

Milk Allergy Symptoms, Diagnosis and Treatment
Tumblr media
What is Milk allergy?
Milk allergy is the most common allergy found in children. Children who are allergic to milk should avoid milk and all its products. Although milk allergy most commonly occurs in infants and children, it can occur in people of any age. It can also be caused by foods that were previously eaten without any problems. Milk allergy is basically a reaction to the protein found in milk. Your body's immune system gets affected by the milk proteins and triggers a variety of symptoms. Rashes , diarrhea , and abdominal pain can be symptoms of an allergy to milk.
What are the symptoms of milk allergy?
Milk allergy symptoms differ from person to person. And they appear minutes or hours after drinking milk or eating milk products. Read More

How often do #cats have #peanutallergy(ies)? Eva’s bum (not the hole) has been irritated. Is it a reaction to not having the nuts? Is it all in her head? These pics are still cute. #cat #catsunited🐈 #catsofinstagram #whiskerweekend (at Urbana, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjOEv8-OZlf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

10 Shocking Facts About Allergies You Never Knew - From Cats and Peanuts to Bee Stings!
Tumblr media
10 Shocking Facts About Allergies You Never Knew - From Cats and Peanuts to Bee Stings! 10 Shocking Facts About Allergies You Never Knew - From Cats and Peanuts to Bee Stings! Allergies can be a real pain! They can cause a lot of discomforts, and in severe cases, can be life-threatening. Here are 10 shocking facts about allergies that you might not have known. 1. Allergies are on the Rise Allergies are becoming increasingly common, with approximately 50 million Americans suffering from them each year. That's about one in every six people! This figure is expected to continue to rise in the coming years. 2. Allergies Can Be Genetic Did you know that allergies can be passed down through generations? If one of your parents suffers from allergies, there is a 30% chance that you will too. If both parents have allergies, your risk increases to 60%. 3. Allergies Can Develop at Any Age While many people think that allergies only develop in childhood, they can actually develop at any age. It's not uncommon for people to develop new allergies well into adulthood. 4. Allergies Can Be Deadly For some people, allergies can be life-threatening. Anaphylaxis is a severe, potentially fatal allergic reaction that can occur within seconds or minutes of exposure to an allergen. This is why it's so important to carry an EpiPen if you have severe allergies. 5. Cat Allergies Are the Most Common Cat allergies are by far the most common type of animal allergy. Approximately 10% of the population is allergic to cats. This is because cats produce a protein called Fel d 1, which is a common allergen. 6. Peanut Allergies Are on the Rise Peanut allergies are one of the most common food allergies, and they are on the rise. Over the past few decades, the number of people with peanut allergies has tripled. This is why many schools and public places have become "peanut-free" zones. 7. Bee Stings Can Be Deadly for Some People While most people experience nothing more than mild swelling and itching from a bee sting, for some people, bee stings can be deadly. Those with a severe bee allergy can experience an anaphylactic reaction, which can be fatal. 8. Allergies Can Affect Your Mental Health Allergies are not just physical. They can also have a significant impact on mental health. People with allergies are more likely to experience depression and anxiety than those without allergies. 9. Allergies Can Affect Your Sleep Allergies can make it difficult to get a good night's sleep. Symptoms such as congestion and itchiness can cause sufferers to wake up multiple times throughout the night, leading to fatigue and irritability during the day. 10. Allergies Can Be Managed While allergies can be inconvenient and uncomfortable, there are many ways to manage them. From avoiding allergens to taking medication, there are many options for allergy sufferers to find relief. In summary, allergies can be a real nuisance, but many people don't realize just how common and widespread they are. From cat and peanut allergies to the risk of anaphylaxis, there's a lot to learn about allergies. If you suffer from allergies, know that you're not alone, and there are many ways to manage your symptoms. #Allergies #Anaphylaxis #Genetics #MentalHealth #Sleep #PeanutAllergies #CatAllergies #BeeStings #EpiPen #Relief #HEALTH Read the full article

My @vermontnutfree chocolates finally came!! Being highly allergic to peanuts, peanut butter and all nuts my whole life, I never got the pleasure of buying a box of chocolates or eating granola bars because of the possibility of nuts being cross contaminated. Old habits die hard and I still checked every label but thank you to this company for being nut free!🥜🙅🏻‍♀️♥️ #nutfreechocolate #peanutallergy #peanutallergyproblems #chocolate https://www.instagram.com/p/CCHlTDIlcp3/?igshid=10oe1vs01i5ly

Tree Nut Allergy Free LUSH Products
After doing multiple searches and contacting customer service, I realized that there is no comprehensive list of tree nut free products. The Ingredient Finder on the LUSH USA website does not include all products under each tree nut ingredient (for example, many products are  missing under “ground almonds,” such as Herbalism and Angels on Bare Skin) 
So I decided to make a list myself! I have compiled a list of all products at LUSH Cosmetics (based on the USA website) that contain ingredients derived from the following: 
Almonds
Hazelnuts
Walnuts 
Peanuts (I know peanuts aren’t tree nuts, but they’re a very common nut allergy, so I threw them in)
NOTE: LUSH products change so frequently! I will make sure to add a “Up to date as of (date)” on each category.
Please drop a message in my ask box if you have any questions!

For those allergic to peanuts but still wish to be a little salty. Design is currently up on my Redbubble shop - link in the bio. Seems the only way to get people to take food allergies seriously is to be loud so hopefully this helps. #peanutallergy #foodallergy #nutallergy #allergictoeverything #allergictopeanuts #allergictonuts #allergywarning #allergyawareness #allergyillustration #allergyart #allergyshirt #shirtgraphic #shirtdesign #tshirtartwork #designingshirts #topallergens #shirtartwork #skullart #skullartwork #skulldrawing #peanutskull #skullandcrossbones #drawingskull #drawingskulls #skulltattoo #tattooartwork #deathlyallergic #peanutsaredeadly https://www.instagram.com/p/Cftx--jrOhD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Peanuts at Parties
I have a peanut and tree nut allergies. When I was a kid whenever I would go to a birthday party I could never have the cake. I would go home and tell my mom about my disappointment. As a result, before the party she would start baking cupcakes in advance. Of course it would be a little awkward bring my own treat but I never felt left out. Can anyone relate to this experience?
