I'm Ella, the creator of Ellagens. This all started when I suffered a nearly fatal anaphylactic shock alone on a run in April 2024, after consuming hazelnuts and almonds. Prior to this severe reaction, I had no idea I had any allergies, let alone the severity of them.
It was an extremely scary experience that I will never forget, and one that now means myself and the people around me carry the weight of managing severe allergies every single day.
This has not only affected me, but my family, friends, and most people around me whether that is restaurant staff or simply people eating next to me.
Eating food is a luxury, but having allergies can make it scary and very difficult especially when you enjoy eating out and travelling as much as I do.
Why I built EllagensThat is why I founded Ellagens. I wanted a simple, reassuring tool that helps people with allergies eat and travel with confidence, something I wish I had after being aware of my allergies.
I hope it supports you as much as it supports me, and gives you the same reassurance and ease I now feel when eating and travelling.
