Food Allergy and Safety!
Food Allergy A serious medical condi4on affec4ng 1 in 13 children. The job of the body’s immune system is to iden4fy and destroy germs (such as bacteria or viruses) that make you sick. A food allergy results when the immune system mistakenly targets a harmless food protein – an allergen – as a threat and a<acks it.
Anaphylaxis • Anaphylaxis is an extreme, life threatening allergic reac4on to a specific allergen.
• Allergic symptoms can affect several areas of the body and may threaten breathing and blood circula4on.
• Ogen begins within minutes ager a person eats a problem food but symptoms may begin hours later.
Possible Symptom DescripQons • It feels like something is poking my tongue. • My tongue (or mouth) is 4ngling (or burning). • My tongue (or mouth) itches. • My tongue feels like there is hair on it. • My mouth feels funny. • There’s a frog in my throat; there’s something stuck in my
throat. • My tongue feels full (or heavy). • My lips feel 4ght. • It feels like there are bugs in there (to describe itchy ears).
Food Allergy Protocol • Be aware of classroom allergies and make
subs4tu4ons if necessary
• Families with allergies of food sample are welcome to bring a subs4tute for their child
• Always check ingredients before lesson • Follow BCHD Food Allergy Guidelines • Report any reac4ons immediately to Lead Docent and Program Manager
