Food Safety Class

  explains Steven Yannicelli, Ph.D., R.D. In
  severe cases, children may experience
  life-threatening side effects, such as
  anaphylactic shock. Other symptoms, such as

  it may increase its risk of interacting with
  immunoglobulin E (IgE), which plays a key role in
  certain food allergies. Although not fully
  established by the medical community, there is a
  concern, based on two reports in The New England

  humane treatment of animals, yet the modern
  factory farms that produce over 90 of the animal
  products we consume today raise their animals in

  rainforest, and other environmental harms, animal
  agriculture takes a devastating toll on the
  planet. Jewish teachings emphasize the grave
  importance of protecting human health.
