Dogs Helps Sniff Out Food-Allergy Dangers

As the parent of two kids with nut and other food allergies, I live in constant fear of hidden allergens in food. (I wrote in 2006 about my older son's near-death experience from an unmarked peanut-butter cookie.) Here is good news for parents who find themselves in this situation: Food-sniffing dogs trained to protect children with food allergies. WBZ TV reports on Angel Service Dogs, a Colorado-based organization that trains dogs to sniff out the scents of dangerous foods in the same way that law enforcement dogs are trained to sniff out contraband.

That's Interesting. If you would like I have another convenient allergy guide---Foodfacts.com that empowers consumers with the information, tools and resources to take action by helping you to become aware of those ingredients and food items that should be avoided, while helping you to identify the most beneficial foods based on your specific nutritional profile! It really works.
