[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a lot more awareness of these things. My Mom has lactose intolerance. Growing up, her stomach always hurt and her parents would give her a glass of milk to make her feel better. She was always very skinny (didn't eat much) - until about 15 years ago when she started taking lactataid, felt better, and started eating more. People didn't used to pay as much attention to general discomfort. I think it's nice we figure these things out more and our children don't have to feel like that.[/quote] Agreed. Isn't there also a chance that both earlier in this country, and in other countries where there is less "allergy awareness", perhaps there were/are fewer older kids and adults w/ severe allergies because those that had/have them did/do not survive long?[/quote]
