Welcome back to the Oh My Allergies! Podcast. Have you ever experienced pollen allergy symptoms during the summer even when it’s not the “typical prime” pollen season?

It’s called ragweed and that’s what we are discussing today. We discuss what is ragweed, what is a ragweed allergy, common symptoms of a ragweed allergy, who tends to develop a ragweed allergy, and so much more!

Welcome back to the Oh My Allergies! Podcast. Have you ever felt like the doctor you were seeing or your usual doctor wasn’t listening to you during a visit? Have you ever felt like a doctor dismissed your medical concerns? Well, today we are talking all about it! In today’s episode, Valencia is talking all about medical gaslighting and how to talk to a doctor when they don’t listen to you. We've all experienced telling a doctor about our symptoms whether it was to an allergist or primary care and having them tell us "it's all in our head" or "it's stress induced" or something like that. It's very frustrating, right? We TOTALLY get that!

Today’s episode is all about faking a food allergy. Yep, you read that right. Faking an allergy. Valencia discusses how there are people who fake having a food allergy, why you should not fake a food allergy, why non-allergic people should take food allergies seriously, and the consequences that come along with faking a food allergy. It’s never okay to fake allergies and have allergies “part time”.

Whether you are guilty of faking a food allergy or know someone who has, you should definitely give this episode a listen. Learn why non-allergic people should recognize the seriousness of food allergies and that a food allergy is different from choosing to eat a certain way and live a certain lifestyle (dairy-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, etc) on purpose.
