anaphylaxisThe UK has the highest rate of allergy in Europe with a staggering 1 in 3 of us suffering. Three year old Charlie’s allergy is a real worry for his mum, at seven months old, after eating scrambled egg on toast, Charlie suffered anaphylactic shock. Although Charlie has stopped eating eggs, he still has a little swelling and spots around his mouth when he eats any food. Dr Pixie sends Charlie to an immunologist to check his reaction to several known allergens. 90% of food allergies are caused by eight foods; egg, peanuts, tree-nuts, fish, shellfish, milk, wheat and soy. After being tested, it is clear that Charlie is only allergic to egg, which children can grow out of as they get older.

This new series explores the conditions and ailments that leave many of us a little red-faced and aims to de-stigmatise common complaints.
