In this episode I speak about managing anaphylactic food allergies using the desensitisation method. There is a current study going on in the Children’s Hospital Boston using a desensitisation method, which sort of mirrors the treatment that’s been going on for years over at the Pediatric Hospital Burlo Garofolo in the city of Trieste, north-east of Italy (www.burlo.trieste.it)
Listen to the podcast here first, then read the websites / watch the videos below.
Ladies and gentleman, only a short TV show this week, just to touch base and flex my video muscles which haven’t been used in a very long time.
As mentioned on the show, this testimonial came in for Melanie’s first book, “Jessie’s Favourite Things (Even with Food Allergies)”
“Just wanted to let you know that we received your book and it is fantastic. My daughter just loves it. She took it to preschool with her the other day and the teachers were very impressed with it. They read it to the class and said that it brought on alot of discussion with the class of 4 year olds. We are very lucky that my daughter has a fantastic preschool that she attends and that they are very supportive with the food allergies. The children in the class are very aware of my daughter’s food allergies and it was wonderful to be able to share this book with them. If you ever publish any more books like this can you please let me know as I would be keen to purchase them. Thanks again for publishing this book. Also thanks for such quick postage. Glad to be getting your emails again too. You do such a wonderful job.”

Thanks Kerry. You made Melanie’s day. I look forward to getting some more testimonials that I can share.
I’ll have a more formatted show next week covering some new research that’s going on at the moment for the treatment of food allergies. It’s cutting edge stuff, that I’ll have to get Melanie to help me so I don’t miss anything.
Also coming soon, a cooking segment (me and kitchens don’t get along so this should be interesting)
Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis information coming at you via the Allergy Smart TV show is back.
Well sort of anyway. I’ll be doing podcasts for awhile with the occassional video thrown in for good measure.
Why because I don’t have the time needed to post process the videos. They are very time consuming, so I’ll save them for special occassions.
Let’s get right back into the saddle then, and get started. Remember that this TV Show / Podcast is in iTunes so just click the link in the menu above if you want to get it down into your MP3 player of choice, otherwise just listen to it on the site.
