#180: Does feeding allergenic foods to your baby freak you out? In this episode we are joined by leading food allergy researcher and author Ruchi Gupta, MD, MPH for a food allergy question and answer session.

From timing of introduction of allergenic foods for babies, to the amounts of protein to be feeding and whether foods are better than supplements for preventing food allergy, Dr. Gupta is answering all of your most frequently asked questions about introducing allergenic foods for babies.

Listen to this episode to learn:

Prevalence of food allergy in infancy and why the percent of babies at high risk for peanut allergy is lower than you think
The difference between sensitization and desensitization and why your baby doesn’t react to a food on the first exposure
Why babies eating MORE foods MORE frequently can help prevent food allergy and how you can make this happen in your family!
