Food allergies in American children seem to be on the rise, affecting 3 million kids, according to the first federal study of the problem.
Experts tell the Associated Press this might be because parents are more aware of allergies, and quicker to have their kids checked out by a doctor.
About one in 26 children reported food allergies last year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. That’s up from one in 30 in 1997.
The 18 percent increase is significant enough to be considered more than a statistical blip, said Amy Branum of the CDC, the study’s lead author.
Nobody knows for sure what’s driving the increase. A doubling in peanut allergies — noted in earlier studies — is one factor, some experts said. Also, children seem to be taking longer to outgrow milk and egg allergies than they did in decades past.
But also figuring into the equation are parents and doctors who are more likely to consider food as the trigger for symptoms like vomiting, skin rashes and breathing problems.
In the past, parents and doctors might have just labeled a child sickly, rather than look for a cause such as a food allergy.

I have severe peanut and nut allergies (meaning I can die if I come in contact with them), what would happen if I give blood to someone? Since the allergies are embedded in my DNA, wouldn’t the allergies show up in the receiver too?
red blood cells don’t hae DNA, and their body will replace the blood in a few weeks and it isn’t your blood cells that react, but the tissues isn’t it? So it wouldn’t be an issue…but if you are really worried, you can always let the nurse at the donation center know about your allergies and they can give you more detailed advice
I’m trying to eat more. The foods I’m eating our peanut butter, egg, 1% milk, whole wheat bread, trans fat free oils and margarine(trans fat free).
I’m also eating some extra food.
My diet is high in fat and protein. Almost all my foods are healthy because theres barely any junk food in my home. I don’t eat out much, I eat out rarely cause well I don’t get out much. And I’m sort of scared of the fats in it mostly trans fat and insulin spikes, etc. I do eat a candy bar mostly everyday. Should I leave that out?
cut the candy out. Otherwise your diet seems cool if you are trying to lose fat. Protein/fats in every meal is how I eat as well. During fat loss that is. I add carbs when adding muscle.
But also remember, it’s still about "calories in" vs " calories out"
Sharing my allergies one sneeze at a time.
