Finding out about allergies can be scary and overwhelming, especially after realizing that you will have to change your diet. To make it easier you should first make sure you know EXACTLY what you are allergic to. That can be done by getting tested or researching on the internet . For example what my mom and I did was google what types of nuts are tree nuts and what types are fruit (like almonds and coconuts) then when I went back to the doctor we tested for all of those types of nuts.This will help you by narrowing down what you can and can't eat so reading labels and informing others will be straightforward. Knowing exactly what to stay away from will give you a piece of mind.
