Food Allergy

Children with eczema have a higher risk in developing allergies.
Common allergens include: peanuts, egg, cow’s milk, soy, wheat, sesame, shellfish and tree nuts.
Parents can introduce a single allergen at a time but should avoid prolonging the introduction of new foods.
Continue feeding allergens routinely once introduced.
Regular allergen exposure for several years is felt to be more important than a fixed interval or amount.
If an allergic reaction is suspected, ensure children are seen quickly.
