The Crunchy Allergist
Empowering naturally-minded, scientifically-grounded individuals looking to reduce or even eliminate their Sjogren's symptoms!
Who is The Crunchy Allergist?
Hi! I am Kara Wada. I am a wife, food allergy mom, and autoimmune warrior. I am a board-certified pediatric and adult Allergist/Immunologist and medical educator at a large academic center in Columbus, Ohio.
After my diagnosis, I didn't know where to start. I knew I needed to make changes in what we were eating and other habits, but I was overwhelmed.
What had the potential to help? What was safe? What was sustainable for the long term? Where could I find a balance between Western medicine and the wellness industry?
The Crunchy Allergist grew out of my frustration.
