The number one question I get asked is "Why are food allergies on the rise?" For years the hygiene hypothesis stood out as the answer, but scientists are discovering it's more complex than that. And no, it's not your fault.

While there is no cure to food allergies, this field of discovery is active and ongoing. Breakthrough research is providing new insights we can even apply to our lives as we navigate life with food allergies.

In this episode we cover facts about food allergies, the latest research honing in on why food allergies are on the rise, and what we can do about it.
