Understanding And Preventing Food Allergies

Food allergies affect millions of people worldwide, and for those with severe allergies, even a small exposure to an allergen can lead to life-threatening reactions. Allergy cards from the NHS and translation cards in the UK can be invaluable tools for travellers. These cards, available in various languages, clearly communicate your allergies to restaurant staff, ensuring they understand your dietary restrictions.

Preventing an allergic reaction is the first line of defence for travellers with food allergies. Researching your destination and its culinary customs is crucial. It’s also essential to communicate your allergies effectively. Consider notifying your accommodation in advance about your or your family’s allergies, especially if you have booked a package holiday.
