Testing for food allergies can be confusing! This, in part, is due to food allergy itself being a confusing disease. Did you know there is more than one type of food allergy? Not just peanut, egg, etc., but there is anaphylactic food allergy and eosinophilic esophagitis and other types of food allergies? Join Dr. Hoyt as she discusses different types of food allergies and the myths and facts to food allergy testing.

Questions about how to use an epinephrine auto-injector? Check out Dr. Hoyt's non-profit Code Ana at www.CodeAna.org. The organization equips schools to be prepared for medical emergencies like anaphylaxis. Are you prepared?
