In this episode of Whole-Body Health©, I chat with Dr. Tina Sindher, clinical associate professor of medicine and pediatrics at Stanford. Tina focuses on allergy and immunology and shares her tips on managing and minimizing allergy symptoms. She gives her insight into what she learned throughout school and her experiences treating food allergy children at Stanford to help us become better informed on what is true when handling allergens and preventing allergies. She gives tips on what to do in our day-to-day lives to help our children and answers the burning question, “Why is the food allergy diagnosis happening so often now?”
