Inspiration from allergies

You only know what you’re missing if you don’t have it anymore. Anyone who gets the diagnosis of lactose intolerance, sees the world a bit smaller: milk, goat cheese, yogurt and many other products are now out of the question. Cosy dining at a restaurant suddenly becomes something you consciously think about, and the same goes for a tasty snack between your meals.

A big problem

You discover you’re no exception: approximately, between 1 and 3% of the population suffers from food allergies or food intolerance. This seems to be a problem of a small minority, but many allergies are not discovered yet: this is becoming a big problem.

A growing problem

The actual number of people with some form of food allergy is probably a lot higher. The proper diagnosis is missing quite often; many do not even know “where these complaints are coming from.” The scientists’ estimates a range from 20 to 30% of the population in Western Europe had food allergy or intolerance, as shown in publications of the leading trade journal “Nutrinews”. That number is only increasing. So this is a growing problem where many people suffer from, but why are there so few safe alternatives?
