Meet Carlo

Allergic to: milk, eggs, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, sesame, fish, shellfish, fruits, vegetables
Favorite TV shows: “House,” “24,” “The Office,” “Lost”

What advice he would give to other teens who have food allergies: “Stay positive. If you stay positive and try to make the best of a bad situation, then things will get better and you won’t feel so bad. You will start to learn on your own how to deal with tough situations, like eating out and dating, and you will be the better for it if you stay positive.”
