Some people think that it is because we are more <strong>aware of allergens<\/strong> now than ever before and there are some links to suggest it is due to the <strong>over-farming of foods<\/strong> and the use of <strong>pesticides and GMOs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The more common allergens that we see in our <strong>Homes<\/strong> are <strong>dairy and wheat or gluten<\/strong>.
