We all have our dietary concerns: some of us by choice and others by necessity. Some of us may choose to go vegetarian, vegan, Whole30, or keto to improve our mood and see how we feel. On the other hand, some of us have to follow specific diets due to certain sensitivities or curb inflammation, blood pressure, allergic reactions, or other health-related issues.
When it comes to the second category—those who have to follow specific diets by necessity—there are still many unknowns. According to Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE), there’s a massive food allergy epidemic where 1 in 10 adults and 1 in 13 children have known food allergens. That’s 32 million Americans!
Additionally, “Each year in the U.S., 200,000 people require emergency medical care for allergic reactions to food.”
That doesn’t even address those with food sensitivities or those who have been diagnosed with chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes or heart disease. These chronic conditions can often be the result of diet and lifestyle choices.
According to a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, “researchers investigated the relationships of 10 different foods and nutrients with deaths related to heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. They also compared data on participants’ age, sex, ethnicity, and education. They found that nearly half of all the deaths in the United States in 2012 that were caused by cardiometabolic diseases were associated with suboptimal eating habits.”
If you’re anything like the rest of us—sick of cooking, bored with everything in your pantry, and tired of getting takeout but still need to be conscious of what you’re eating. Then what?
