28| Peanuts in Schools: Are Allergen Bans Enough?

Hey food allergy mama,

Get ready because this episode is juicy!

This Episode is for the nut and peanut allergy parent who don’t think they need to meet with their teacher at school because the school has a “no nut policy”.  

It’s also for parents that manage other allergies because I think you’ll learn some important information too.

I’m sharing experiences we’ve had with nut bans throughout all our years in elementary school and jr. high, as well as some surprising evidence-based studies that might just turn what you think about nut bans upside down.

If your school has a nut ban, OR, you wish you could ban your child’s allergen at your school, THIS episode is for you!

I hope this blesses you!

Corinna
