Peanuts, Eggs, Food Allergies, and FPIES; Oh My!

I welcome back Dr. Shreya Patel, an Allergist and Immunologist. We spoke on episode 7 about Eczema 101 and she's back to talk all about FOOD ALLERGIES and FPIES. 

Parents are afraid of their child having a food allergy, but it is this fear that can cause them to delay the introduction of allergenic of foods which can increase chances of a food allergy.

What are the most common allergenic foods?

Can children outgrow food allergies?

When can you introduce allergenic foods?

What's the deal on allergenic food programs like Spoonful One, Ready Set Food, and Lil' Mixins?

What is FPIES? And what are the signs? 

Listen in as we answer these questions and so much more!
