Allergy-Free Recipes: Delicious Ideas and a Moving Story | Kayla Cappiello | The Exam Room Podcast

The queen of healthy allergy-free recipes joins The Exam Room with delicious and safe recipes that anyone can enjoy.
Kayla Cappiello specializes in recipes that are gluten free and can easily be transformed into dairy-free, nut-free, low-fat vegan masterpieces.
Her passion in the kitchen stems from her own experiences with food allergies. The journey began with acute episodes that landed her in the emergency room after eating nuts as a child.
As an adult, she often felt sick and tired and had brain fog. Doctors were baffled by her symptoms before discovering that she has celiac disease and was lactose intolerant in addition to having the nut allergy. Even something as simple as a sandwich would knock her for a loop.
Kayla didn't want to stop eating all of her favorite foods, so she began to develop allergy-free recipes for the dishes she loved.
She joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to talk about balancing making healthy decisions without sacrificing flavor and how her delicious journey has her feeling better than ever.

Listened to this on Spotify and wanted to drop by and say Hats off to Chuck for being such a great host - he’s maneuvering the conversation so eloquently and makes every topic transitions so smooth!

[@mini4196]

Love chucks shirt and tie combo colors 😇thanks for everything you do to keep us informed 🙏

[@doncasto8520]

Wait, wait what? Tator tot taco meat???? Glad the guest was able to find peace and enjoyment with her allergies. Not all of us need an event to make a change though, I made a change 30 years ago to not have an event. So far so good.

[@chiyerano]

Yay for Nice cream! Good to know the guest doesn't have any allergies to cashews. This was helpful for finding allergy free vegan recipes for things. Thank you for this post and upload.

Hey Chuck how much cacao powder do you put in your chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie?

[@prettybird2588]

I am crying in my car right now. I literally just got my IgE results and im allergic to wheat, dairy ,nuts and egg whites. I literally cant eat.

[@JillianSmith-bn5vj]

Gluten free vegan works for me 😊😊

[@KarinKuiper]

There's life beyond, and food other than wheat, dairy, nuts and egg whites. Just skip all dairy (including eggs), look for other grains than wheat, and get your protein from beans, lentils et cetera. Lots of people have to eat such a diet. And a nut allergy needs to be specified. What kind of nuts? All of them? That's nuts, you deserve a better diagnosis.

[@myggggeneration]

Her dad has Celiac disease and she ate lots of bread into her twenties without making that connection after being exhausted after daily consumption of paninii?

[@chiyerano]

Not all bread is made with wheat.

[@leevize6045]

It is too bad about the recipes with oil, and fish, and meat. I don’t want to think about modifying a recipe when choosing one.

[@sparkleinco2035]

baby steps

[@blsenterprise1]

The reason you are allergic to foods is because you have an autoimmune condition. The reason you have an autoimmune condition is because of chronic cellular stress leading to chronic inflammation leading to chronic dehydration. That's the answer period.

[@soyboy2238]

Her excessive use of "like" and vocal fry are annoying. I couldn't stand to listen to the whole thing.

[@polibm6510]

So she's mostly allergic to plants. Ok.
