<br />
After many years of dedicated work to the Seacoast Food Allergy Group, Tamara Leibowitz, has handed the group to the care of Susan Engle. Thank you Tamara for all your hard work and passion for this group!<br />
<br />
Susan Engle, with support from Jennifer DePiano and Ilara Donarum, will be taking over. We hope that we can continue to grow and offer everyone support and information they need navigating the Food Allergy World!<br />
<br />
In addition, our Medical Advisor, Dr. Barbara Deuell, provided us with current research articles. We will have them available at the next meeting if anyone would like to read through them if you missed the last meeting.<br />
<br />
Hope to see everyone at our next meeting on August 29th.Seacoast Food Allergy Grouphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14852820683331261864noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7365640157640036615.post-59857986617194470712011-06-12T15:05:00.000-07:002011-06-12T15:05:40.766-07:00With ban, allergic Red Sox fans cheer, breathe - The Boston Globe<a href="http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/health/articles/2011/06/12/with_ban_allergic_red_sox_fans_cheer_breathe/?camp=misc:on:share:article">With ban, allergic Red Sox fans cheer, breathe - The Boston Globe</a><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Seacoast Food Allergy Grouphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14852820683331261864noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7365640157640036615.post-61070614131771247372011-05-12T08:03:00.000-07:002011-05-13T13:21:53.829-07:00504 Information for Back to School<a href="http://myemail.constantcontact.com/Ready-for-School-with-Food-Allergies-.html?soid=1101439904708&aid=4d30VDYfbZc">http://myemail.constantcontact.com/Ready-for-School-with-Food-Allergies-.html?soid=1101439904708&aid=4d30VDYfbZc</a>Seacoast Food Allergy Grouphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14852820683331261864noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7365640157640036615.post-53248779416023578172011-05-12T07:36:00.000-07:002011-05-13T13:21:53.755-07:00Traveling with allergies resource<a href="http://www.allergictraveler.net/">http://www.allergictraveler.net/</a>Seacoast Food Allergy Grouphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14852820683331261864noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7365640157640036615.post-35725017135549271852011-05-05T07:11:00.000-07:002011-05-05T07:11:50.330-07:00NH Fisher Cats Feature Peanut-free zones at 2 Games this Season!<div class="yiv518700547MsoNormal" style="display: block; line-height: 1.2em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1304604293_0" style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The New Hampshire</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"> Fisher Cats (AA-Toronto Blue Jays) will be featuring peanut free zones at two home games this season. <b>Thursday, May 19</b></span><sup style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><b>th</b></span></span></sup><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><b> at 10:35 a.m. and Wednesday, June 22</b></span><sup style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><b>nd</b></span></span></sup><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><b> at 7:05 p.m.</b></span></span></span></div><div class="yiv518700547MsoNormal" style="display: block; line-height: 1.2em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Recently, several food labels have changed, so this is a great reminder to read labels every time you purchase a product. Ingredients or manufacturing processes can change at any time. Please keep in mind that cross-contamination warnings (such as "may contain..." or "made on the same equipment that processes...") are voluntary and not required to be disclosed on labels.<br />
<br />
1. <strong>Silk Soymilk</strong> labels now state, "May contain almonds or coconut," because the soymilk may be manufactured on equipment that is used by products that contain almond or coconut. Not all containers have this warning yet.<br />
<br />
2. <strong>Clabber Girl Baking Powder </strong>labels now state, "Manufactured on equipment that also processes wheat, soy, milk and egg." The front of the can states they are still producing in a peanut-free facility. Old cans claimed, "Gluten Free".<br />
<br />
3. <strong>Wheaties</strong> cereal states, "May contain almonds." <strong>Wheaties Fuel</strong> cereal states, "May contain almonds or peanuts."<br />
<br />
4. <strong>Hostess Cupcakes</strong> are labeled with a "May contain walnuts" warning. Some <strong>Hostess Donettes</strong> are now labeled as "May contain walnuts and pecans."<br />
<br />
5. According to the Spangler candy website, <strong>Dum Dum Gum Pops</strong> and <strong>Dum Dum Chewy Pops</strong> made in the USA are free of peanuts, tree nuts, egg, gluten, and milk. But be aware that Dum Dum Gum Pops and Dum Dum Chewy Pops<strong> made in Brazil</strong> are manufactured in a facility where peanuts and milk are used in the manufacturing of other products. Please check the back panel of the item you are purchasing for country of origin. This information is only on the original bag, not on the individual wrappers.</span><br />

Dear Seacoast Food Allergy Group,<br />
<br />
We did it!!<br />
<br />
Five years after the <strong><a href="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/site/R?i=va9zIBpYpzzsROPyxAp0vQ.." style="color: #0ea6c2;" target="_blank">Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Management Act (FAAMA)</a></strong> was introduced in the U.S. Congress, FAAMA has finally <strong><a href="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/site/R?i=iDPD1h6iIEdPG78Mg5Cr9g.." style="color: #0ea6c2;" target="_blank">passed as part of the food safety bill</a></strong> and is expected to be signed into law by President Obama.<br />
<br />
<img align="right" alt="Classroom" border="0" height="139" hspace="5" src="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/images/content/pagebuilder/16578.jpg" vspace="5" width="209" />FAAMA will lead to the much-needed creation of national food allergy management guidelines for schools. While these guidelines are voluntary, they will provide schools without existing food allergy management policies with a valuable resource.<br />
<br />
These policies are critical to help educate school officials about food allergy, a potentially life-threatening medical condition, and help them implement emergency plans in case a severe reaction occurs on school grounds. Studies have shown that up to 25% percent of reactions in school occur in children with previously undiagnosed food allergy.<br />
<br />
Earlier this month, a <strong><a href="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/site/R?i=OQTpfDjuxYit7UgeUHs9WQ.." style="color: #0ea6c2;" target="_blank">fatal reaction occurred at a school in Chicago</a></strong>, allegedly due to food that was consumed at school.<br />
<br />
The guidelines will also benefit parents of children with food allergies, who are looking for a vetted resource to help them safely manage their child’s food allergies in the school setting.<br />
<br />
Written largely by <strong><a href="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/site/R?i=SgbLEuEoJ0T2VqnJQvJuyA.." style="color: #0ea6c2;" target="_blank">FAAN</a></strong>, the national guidelines will not supersede <strong><a href="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/site/R?i=-zUjQr3fqT64LqspON2WsA.." style="color: #0ea6c2;" target="_blank">existing or pending state laws</a></strong> or<strong><a href="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/site/R?i=gMTwDLozBfDno94-XPIZBg.." style="color: #0ea6c2;" target="_blank">guidelines</a></strong> concerning schools and food allergies. The FAAMA guidelines should be seen as a complement to existing guidelines created as a result of other legislation.<br />
<br />
This tremendous accomplishment was made possible by the thousands of individuals who advocated for this legislation and many elected representatives who co-sponsored FAAMA over the years, most notably <strong><a href="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/site/R?i=v6QsIp_sbLcce87TpjQXqw.." style="color: #0ea6c2;" target="_blank">Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.)</a></strong>, whose daughter has a food allergy, and <strong><a href="http://www.foodallergywalk.org/site/R?i=hzAk-DxX5NcszTiTzvDxrA.." style="color: #0ea6c2;" target="_blank">Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.)</a></strong>, who has a grandchild with a food allergy.<br />
<br />
We celebrate the passage of FAAMA today, but our work is not done. FAAN will continue to work diligently to raise awareness, educate others, and advocate on behalf of the millions of Americans with food allergy and anaphylaxis.<br />

These guidelines are intended for use by physicians and other health care practitioners who treat food allergies. Patients will benefit directly, because the guidelines will provide standardized information and recommendations to healthcare providers for the diagnosis and treatment of food allergies.<br />
<br />
A panel of experts convened by the NIH/NIAID, which oversees allergy research, developed these guidelines, and we are proud to play an important role in these guidelines: AAFA's Vice President of Policy & Programs serves on the NIAID's Clinical Practice Guidelines Coordinating Committee, responsible for writing the new guidelines. Also, AAFA's President and CEO serves as a member of the National Advisory Allergy and Infectious Diseases Council at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).<br />
