The Allergy Menu

As busy mothers, Pauline O'Sullivan and Michelle Kazukaitis are always looking for ways to economize on time whilst providing the very best lifestyle and health options for their families. "It can be a challenge to run a household at the best of times', but in Pauline's experience, 'when you throw food allergies or intolerances into the mix, it can take over your life and leave you feeling stressed and anxious".

waffles The journey to 'The Allergy Menu' began in 2008, when Pauline's seven year old daughter developed a severe facial rash. In a quest to help her, Pauline ran the gambit of traditional doctors, allergy clinics, nutritionists and naturopaths before finally discovering that food intolerances were a big part of the issue for her daughter. Through this process Pauline realized that as difficult as it can be to get a diagnosis, it is only half the battle. Learning to manage ongoing dietary limitations in a nutritionally sound way is a huge adjustment requiring a great deal of study, planning and organization. The 'food sensitive' need to become experts at reading food labels though the majority of processed and convenience foods are no longer allowable, usually because they contain gluten based thickeners or artificial additives and preservatives.

When health issues are at stake, it is safer for those with food issues to prepare their own food. This is especially so, if accidental consumption of a particular food is likely to cause life threatening or debilitating reactions. Eating food prepared by others can be for some, like playing Russian roulette as there are so many 'traps for the uninitiated'. There are many cases where people have died or have experienced severe physical reactions, due to the accidental contamination of 'specially prepared' food.

The Allergy Menu is designed to offer those living with dietary restrictions a healthy, varied and delicious assortment of recipes to choose from, without the stress", adds Michelle. ??Results released this week from a study by Foodintol, revealed that 42 per cent of people who have a food intolerance experience symptoms including bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, back pain, stiff joints and headaches for more than five years before seeking dietary help.
