Stressed out about traveling with food allergies? In this video, I share my top 18 tips for traveling with a severe food allergy. I suffer from multiple food allergies and I also have a son who is severely allergic to nuts, so planning a trip can sometimes be quite challenging. Planning ahead, carrying your own allergy-safe food, and having a contingency plan are all key to ensure a safe trip. It is always a scary situation dealing with food allergies when away from home, but it should not prevent you from traveling and enjoying your life.

Please take note that I am not a medical doctor. All of the information in this video is based on my own experience of living with food allergies, as well as research I have done, and should not be seen as medical advice.
Thank you
