Food Allergy Research & Education, Inc. (FARE): Enjoying Life Notwithstanding Dietary Restrictions


Food allergies should not be ignored because this condition can be potentially life threatening. While most people suffer from discomfort brought about by an allergic reaction to the food they eat, many people die from anaphylaxis. This problem does not just affect adults. One in every thirteen children also suffers from one form of food allergy or another.

FARE or Food Allergy Research & Education is a non-profit organization which was founded in 2012. The organization was the result of a merger between two respected organizations that dealt with food allergies – the Food Allergy Initiative and the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network. FARE was founded in order to help people with food allergies maintain a good quality of life despite their dietary restrictions. They also help in enhancing the patients’ access to healthcare, treatment, and accurate diagnosis. Lastly, the organization aims to support research endeavors that would find ways to treat this condition.
