What do I need to know about allergenic foods for kids? When can I give them?

Allergies have been on our minds lately. Many parents have asked - when/how should I give them? How do we avoid possibly ending up in the ER in this global pandemic?

I hear you.

It can be scary to explore this uncertain world of allergies, not knowing whether we might be dealing with a rash or a life threatening situation. The good news is, if you know what to look for and what to expect, you can safely continue to explore new foods at home.

I created this video to give you a run down of how to look for signs of a severe reaction, when to (and when not to) expect them, as well as some guidance on introducing new foods to your kid for the first time.

Wishing you all continued wellness and safety.

Much love,

Dr. Amy and the Kinder Team
