Are Processed Foods the Cause of Food Allergies and Anaphylaxis?
I have often thought about why our kids have food allergies, and food anaphylaxis.
Other than of course the hygeine theory.
What about the amount of processed foods that we eat? My theory (having no scientific basis of course) is that we consume way to much processed food. That goes right down to the vegetables, and meats that are also processed (hormone enriched, etc). Unless you live on your own self sustaining farm, you are consuming processed food. Who knows what that’s doing to your body, which is then passed down to the children.?
Where were these food allergies a generation ago.? Maybe they were around but just not diagnosed as such.
There are so many factors, including exposure to the allergen to a child early on. I could go on for ages, but just wanted to get this down while I thought about it.
What do you think.?
