In this episode of Resilience and Hope: A Food Allergy Podcast, food allergy mom Lesley-Anne Stone sits down with actor and former food allergy patient Mitchell Berg (Nickelodeon's Henry Danger & Side Hustle) , along with his mom Kim, for an inspiring on-location conversation about overcoming fear, finding balance, and reclaiming life after food allergies.
Diagnosed with a shellfish allergy in first grade, Mitchell spent years navigating the stress and uncertainty that come with severe food restrictions—until he began the Tolerance Induction Program at the Food Allergy Institute. With the support of his parents and a lot of discipline, he completed the program while balancing school, a full-time acting career, and the everyday challenges of being a teenager.
Mitchell and Kim share what those two years were really like: prepping shellfish before school, staying consistent on the road, and the emotional payoff of reaching remission. This episode is a powerful look at what’s possible when families lean in, stay organized, and don’t give up.
