A step-by-step instruction manual for families managing sesame allergy.

When Goldie Putrym took her little girl on their first ever family vacation, she had no idea it would also include another of her baby’s firsts - anaphylaxis. Over the next two years, the family would see many more such reactions and discover life-threatening allergies to five more foods, including sesame.

This book brings together nearly a decade of research and experience managing food allergies and eczema. Packed with advice and tried-and-tested tips, all grounded in science, this guide will teach you how to thrive with food allergies.

Written by a busy working parent for busy working parents, the short chapters get straight to the point. There are simple explanations of medical jargon so you can have assertive and meaningful conversations with your doctor.

There are practical tips and step-by-step instructions on:

  • Recognising and treating a reaction
  • Allergy medications and how they work
  • Tests including skin prick tests, blood tests & oral food challenges
  • Introducing allergenic foods to babies
  • Reading ingredient labels, with lists of what to avoid
  • Sesame-free recipe substitutions
  • Immunotherapy
  • Safety at school and work
  • Eating out at restaurants
  • Travel and holidays

With a full section on managing anxiety and building confidence, this book is useful for all families, not just those with allergies.
