Sports can make food allergy reactions worse because blood pressure dramatically increases while exercising. An athlete doesn't want their performance to be hindered because of anaphylaxis and gastrointestinal issues.

Additionally, an athlete needs to question what ingredients are in the foods brought by others. While athletes are responsible for their health, they should also inform their teammates and coaches.

The athlete must advocate for themselves by letting their coach know about their allergy. The athlete can provide an allergy action plan that is signed by their physician.

They must also let their teammates and other coaches know so that in case of an emergency, they would know how to assist the athlete. The athlete should also provide them with their EpiPen in case of a medical crisis and demonstrate the proper use of the EpiPen should the need for use ever arise.

Furthermore, if they made homemade treats, they should tell you the ingredients. Playing sports with food allergies is complicated to deal with. But with a few precautions, allergic reactions can be prevented.

And these 3 three are easy to pack. Our new favorite is dried apple chips. We love the taste and that the only ingredient are apples.

We like Bare snacks. I like to call this Lunchables for adults. While food is expensive right now, we grill and take it with us or buy deli meat. We love Applegate products. And real cheddar cheese or provolone. Being that both are low in lactose , these cheeses are hard enough for on-the-go and readily available.

If you have a gluten allergy, use GF bread or crackers. We use sourdough bread because it is good for your gut. While not GF, it works for those with a gluten sensitivity. Treats are fun and there are plenty of allergy-free options but also sugar can fuel you in the short term.

We love Smart Sweets. They are not only allergy free but low in sugar, too. Water is king but when you are refueling during the day there are two other drinks we love that are low in sugar. Roar has vitamins, antioxidants, and electrolytes in fun flavors.

Definitely try them! They are organic, too. Gatorade Zero is low in sugar and is readily available in most stores. Amy Masters is a sports mom, coach and club administrator.

Top Snacks for Athletes with Allergies. Sports Nutrition for Gut Health Have a food sensitivity or allergy in your family? The list of items come in low sugar options for those on a low FODMAP diet.

Berries: Let your athlete choose their favorite berries. Blueberries, raspberries, and sliced strawberries tend to be the heavy favorites in parfaits, but if your athlete prefers chunks of kiwi instead, go for it! An easy option for busy parents is to buy frozen mixed berries, then prep the parfait the day before, so the berries have time to defrost in the fridge.

Frozen berries can actually be better because the juices tend to run more and blend the whole parfait together. Granola: To add more satiating carbohydrates and satisfying crunch, you can buy gluten-free granola, or easily make homemade gluten-free granola with under 10 minutes of prep.

If you do want to make your own, preheat the oven to degrees. In a bowl, combine gluten-free oats with a drizzle of maple syrup, a sprinkle of cinnamon, a dash of salt, and any chopped nuts that your athlete enjoys.

Mix together until the oats stick together with that maple syrup. Spread the mixture thinly out on parchment paper, then cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the granola is dry and can easily be pushed around the pan. After baking, you can add in any dried fruit that your athlete enjoys too.

You can do this once a week and have tasty homemade granola for days! Even easier: Forget making granola, and instead just cook up some gluten-free instant oatmeal with a splash of almond milk, a spoonful of peanut butter, a sliced-up banana, some mixed berries, and a dash of maple syrup.

Have them help prep the ingredients, then build their own bowls. Start with a base of brown or multigrain rice for a complex carbohydrate that will leave them feeling full throughout the day.

Add your protein: this could be beans, grilled chicken, canned salmon, or tuna—whatever protein your athlete enjoys. Add vegetables: opt for fresh or sautéed vegetables. Peppers and onions that are quickly sautéed make a great fajita-style bowl, while spinach, arugula, and romaine can add a nice crunch.

Cucumbers, tomatoes, and bell peppers are also nice additions. Add crunch, zest, and fun: Some fun topping ideas can include chopped nuts, crushed tortilla chips, avocado slices or guacamole, pickled jalapeños, and cheese or vegan cheese.

Make your side dressing: A small container with salsa or their topping of choice can be stored separately to prevent everything from becoming soggy. In fact, a gluten-free athlete in the house can actually be a benefit because it forces you to get a bit more creative with vegetables and alternatives to bread and pasta.

Ziesmer recommends:. Rather than constantly trying to replace dairy, soy, and gluten with processed options like vegan cheese or gluten-free pasta, opt for simple whole foods and meals that skip those ingredients altogether when possible. Making your own allergen-free options, like a gluten-free granola, not only avoids added sugars and processing, it also allows you to create combinations that your athlete will love.
