🌱 Sesame Allergy: What parents - and allergy advocates - should know 🌱 Sesame allergy is becoming more common in children, and it’s often more serious than people realise. Sesame can trigger severe allergic reactions, even in very small amounts, and it can be hidden in many everyday foods like bread rolls, wraps, crackers, houmous, tahini, dressings, or in the seasoning of breaded foods. For allergy parents, this means: 💭 Constant label checking 💭 Extra conversations with schools, friends and family 💭 Worry about food that looks safe but isn’t In the UK, sesame is one of the 14 major allergens that must be clearly labelled, but fresh bakery items and shared food can still carry risk. 💜 If you’re not an allergy parent, a little awareness makes a big difference: ✔ Ask before offering food ✔ Read labels carefully ✔ Don’t assume “a few seeds won’t matter” With understanding and inclusion, children with sesame allergy can take part safely, without missing out. Here at ACE we offer Oral Immunotherapy for Sesame, with many patients successfully graduating from treatment after around five months, reaching a stable state with the maintenance dose. Anyone with an allergy diagnosis can access this treatment with ACE, through our Self-Referral Gateway.
