How to Introduce Allergenic Foods to Your Baby

#11: What if your baby has an allergic reaction to a food? The only way to know if your baby is allergic is to offer them that food…but there are some safety guidelines you want to know about.

In this episode we’ll look at the recent research and updated guidelines that support early introduction of potentially allergenic foods and then how to safely prepare those foods to help lower your baby’s risk of food allergy.

Listen to this episode to learn:

1. What the Top 9 allergenic foods are and how you can use real food to introduce them to your baby

2. What to do if your baby has an allergic reaction to food…and why they are unlikely to die from that

3. How to safely introduce all of the Top 9 allergenic foods in the first 9 weeks after starting solids
