I understand allergies

My name is Julianne Ponan. Anaphylaxis advocate and founder of the top 14 allergen free brand:  Creative Nature. I suffer from anaphylaxis to many allergens in the top 14 and beyond, such as tree nuts, peanuts, chickpea and sesame. 

Throughout my entire life I have felt like I was missing out when it comes to food. From sitting on the “allergy table” at school to having turn down home made cakes at parties.

My work is dedicated to changing and improving the lives of those with allergies. I have taken part in government consultations, campaigned for Natasha’s law, and spoken out against issues such as food labelling and discrimination against allergies.

The products I have developed for Creative Nature cater for all top 14 allergens and are produced in a tree nut and peanut free environment. Each batch undergoes multiple tests for allergen traces so you can be sure that the product really is free from! This is why we say it’s #DeliciousWithoutDoubt
