How to Treat Peanut Allergies
As a child, I remember going to preschool and having peanut butter crackers as a snack. Back in those times it did not seem like there was such a thing as peanut allergies. Peanut butter is a cheap source of protein that doesn't require refrigeration and was considered a great weeny food for infants and a staple food for vegetarians. In the last decade the amount of children developing peanut allergies has doubled. 1.5 % of the total population currently suffers from severe peanut allergies. The reason for this increase still puzzles scientists.

The fear that all parents and children of peanut allergies have is the potential to have an anaphylactic shock. Due to the life threatening conditions that occur with peanut allergies, it it important to seek immediate attention.
If a child goes through anaphylaxis, some ways you can treat it is with an Anti-histamine or Adrenaline Medicine. An Anti-histamine will combat the release of histamine reversing the effects that occur with Anaphylatic Shock.
Adrenaline which naturally occurs in the body as a stress hormone can be given as a medication and is the most effective, fast-acting treatment for anaphylaxis. Adrenaline medication is given by injection through what is called a "Epipen".
