Dear Alexander,
It is not uncommon for two people who have the exact same food allergies to manage them in different ways.
Families will decide what food is or isn’t okay for their children to eat on the basis of what their doctor has told them and how serious the food allergy is.
Every family has its own rules for taking care of food allergies, and it is important that you stick to your rules – even if your friend’s rules are different.
The information above is not designed to take the place of a doctor’s instructions. Patients are urged to contact a doctor for specific information regarding guidelines for care.
