Anaphylaxis
Anaphylaxis
The current estimate by the Food Allergy Research and Education organization (FARE) is that 1 in every 13 children under the age of 18 have food allergies. Food allergy prevalence among children has been increasing for decades, up by 50 percent between 1997 and 2011, and again by 50 percent between 2007 and 2021.
A food allergy is an impairment that limits a major life activity and may qualify an individual for protection under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. More than 40 percent of children with food allergies have experienced a severe allergic reaction such as anaphylaxis ( Food Allergy Research and Education 2024).
