SUMMIT COUNTY, CO, February 12, 2013 (Press-News.org) Founded and based in Summit County, Colorado, Bee Nut Free, LLC is an allergy friendly snack food company focused on providing options for those suffering from food allergies.
Founder Jo-Anne Tyson was inspired by her son's positive attitude towards his life-threatening peanut and tree nut allergy, and also by a friend's story of her challenges with Celiac disease. It is from this inspiration that Tyson dreamed up Bee Nut Free, which provides tasty, nutritious and safe snacks to allergy sensitive individuals. She enlisted her son's help in designing the bee in the company's logo, while her friend designed its columbine.
"I, like many others, became frustrated with the lack of variety of snack foods available for children with food sensitivities," said Jo-Anne. "We take great pride in our products - we require allergy information from each of our suppliers while also routinely testing raw ingredients and finished products for allergens."
More than 17 million Americans suffer from food allergies. It is only through strict avoidance of food allergens, early recognition, and management of allergic reactions that serious health consequences can be prevented. Eight food categories account for 90% of all allergic reactions related to food - milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish and shellfish. Bee Nut Free's snacks is free of seven of these, and the company is actively working on finding a way to produce goods without risk of cross contamination with soy.
In the spirit of providing wholesome nutritious snacks, the company also keeps its products free of high-fructose corn syrup, trans fats, and artificial colors and flavorings.
"Our snack products are so good, folks with or without food allergies are asking for them!" says Jo-Anne. "We love where we live, we love what we do, and we love the fact that our products make food choices a little easier for individuals with allergies."

Are We Overspending on Valentine's Day? How to Save Your Relationship and Your Finances
2013-02-12
St. Valentines Day is, traditionally, a day of romantic extravagance, with lovers often breaking the bank in an effort to show just how much their partner means to them.
Valentine's Day has long been big business and it's only getting bigger. This year Valentine's Day spending is expected to reach $17.6 billion according to Bloomberg, a figure that the same report suggests will be significantly inflated by price hikes of up to 200% on popular romantic gifts. It seems that marketers are well aware of how susceptible we are to overspending on Valentine's Day.

Infant gut microbiota influenced by cesarean section and breastfeeding practices
2013-02-11
Method of birth (vaginal birth s. cesarean delivery) and feeding practices (breastfeeding v. formula-feeding) influence the development of gut bacteria in newborns and thus may affect lifelong health, according to a new study in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal).
Bacteria in the gut play an important role in health, helping digest food, stimulating the development of the immune system, regulating bowels and protecting against infection. Disruption of the gut microbiota has been linked to a range of diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, allergies, asthma, ...
Exercise linked with reduced prostate cancer risk in Caucasians but not African-Americans
2013-02-11
A new study suggests that exercise may reduce Caucasian men's risk of developing prostate cancer. And among Caucasian men who do have prostate cancer, exercise may reduce their risk of having more serious forms of the disease. Unfortunately, the benefits do not seem to apply to African- American men. The study is published early online in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society.
Previous research has linked exercise to a reduced risk of developing prostate cancer. Studies have also revealed that African-American men have an increased risk of developing ...
Mouse model improves understanding of clear cell sarcoma
2013-02-11
(SALT LAKE CITY)—Geneticists led by University of Utah Nobel Prize Laureate Mario R. Capecchi, Ph.D., have engineered mice that develop clear cell sarcoma (CCS), a significant step in better understanding how this rare and deadly soft tissue cancer arises. The mouse model also can potentially speed the development of drugs to target genes that must be activated for the cancer to form.
CCS arises in connective soft tissues, such as tendons, fat, blood vessels, and muscle. Researchers have known that the first step in the process that leads to CCS occurs when two human ...
Researchers identify genetic root to early-onset prostate cancer
2013-02-11
Prostate cancer is often considered an elderly man's disease, and little is known about the approximately 2% of cases that arise in men who are aged 50 years or younger. Research published in the February 11th issue of the Cell Press journal Cancer Cell uncovers the genetic origin of such early-onset prostate cancer. The findings could help in the development of new diagnostic, prognostic, therapeutic, and prevention strategies for the disease.
"It's been unclear whether prostate cancer in the young is explainable by a different mechanism than prostate cancer in the elderly. ...
International study suggests improved treatment alternative for lymphoid leukemia
2013-02-11
CINCINNATI – Discovering what they call the "Achilles' heel" for lymphoid leukemia, an international research team has tested a possible alternative treatment that eradicated the disease in mouse models.
Reporting their results Feb. 11 in the journal Cancer Cell, the scientists said the targeted molecular therapy described in their study could have direct implications for current treatment of Acute Lymphoid Leukemia (ALL) in people.
Led by researchers at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and the Institut de recherches cliniques de Montreal (ICRM), the study ...
Study finds difficulty obtaining pricing, varying costs for total hip replacement
2013-02-11
Researchers who sought to determine whether pricing information for a total hip replacement could be obtained from hospitals and physicians found getting such information was often difficult and that there were wide variations in the quoted prices, according to a report published Online First by JAMA Internal Medicine, a JAMA Network publication.
Data on hospital quality – and to a lesser degree physician quality – are available from public and private sector sources. However, data on hospital and physician pricing are more difficult to obtain, the authors write in the ...
Tumor blood vessels prevent the spread of cancer cells
2013-02-11
A lack of the protein endoglin in the blood vessels of tumour-bearing mice enables the spread of daughter tumours, according to researchers at Karolinska Institutet and Lund University in Sweden in a study published in the scientific periodical The Journal of Experimental Medicine. Given that the tumour vasculature constitutes an important barrier to the spread of cancer cells, the team suggests that drugs should be developed to strengthen the blood vessels' protective function.
Studies of the process of metastasis (the spread of daughter tumours) have mainly focused ...
Earth-directed CME released by long duration solar flare
2013-02-11
On Feb. 9, 2013 at 2:30 a.m. EST, the sun erupted with an Earth-directed coronal mass ejection or CME, associated with a long duration C2.4-class flare. Experimental NASA research models, based on observations from the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) and ESA/NASA's Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, show that the CME left the sun at speeds of around 500 miles per second, which is a fairly typical speed for CMEs. Historically, CMEs at this speed are usually benign.
Not to be confused with a solar flare, a CME is a solar phenomenon that can send solar ...
