Food allergies and food intolerances are a growing issue around the world, with many kids being affected daily. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 50 million Americans suffer from some form of food allergy and 4-6% of children are affected by allergies to food, however allergies can develop at any time during a lifespan.

90% of all food reactions are caused by merely 8 common food allergens. These are eggs, milk, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, wheat and soy. If you’re looking to go plant-based and you have allergies, it can seem like an impossible task, every recipe seems to contain gluten or nuts!
