May is Asthma Awareness Month and last Sunday wrapped up Food Allergy Awareness Week.
It was a busy week of allergy news, blogs, community advocating and the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Twitter Party.
Awareness is always a good thing and it’s great to have a “Food Allergy Awareness Week” , but at Best Allergy Sites–every week is food allergy awareness week. I’m sure you feel that’s the case in your home as well.
Following is some great information, posts and news we wanted to share with you to keep the spirit of Food Allergy Awareness alive.
