Every surface, every playground structure and every picnic table is a potential minefield. Young children's hands, seemingly innocuous foods and even the dirt on the ground are all suspect. Accidental exposure to allergens like peanuts can quickly turn into a life-or-death scenario and a trip to the emergency room. This is the nerve-wracking reality for millions of families in the U.S. that have children with a food allergy -- more than one-third of them have a history of severe allergic reactions. And while the majority are told it's a life-long condition without a cure, more and more families are turning to a new treatment that's slowly gaining traction in the medical community. [/QUOTE]
