AllergySmartz is a FREE smartphone app that helps people overcome challenges while travelling with food allergies. The app will convey food allergies and precautions needed for safe food preparation to restaurant staff in foreign countries. The AllergySmartz app was created by high school student, Shirali Nigam, inspired by her own experience traveling outside of the United States.
The AllergySmartz app allows a user to identify their sensitivity to the top 12 allergens. The app then provides that information, along with safe food preparation instructions in any of 10 languages.
Dr. Robert Wood provided medical consultation for the development of AllergySmartz. Dr. Robert Wood is an internationally recognized expert in food allergy and childhood asthma. He is a professor of pediatrics and chief of Pediatric Allergy and Immunology at Johns Hopkins Hospital, and professor of International Health at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
