Babies and allergies

Due to environmental pollution, poor food choices and lifestyles, babies and allergies are commonplace. The Allergy Kit can naturally reduce and eliminate the allergic symptoms and strengthen the immune system in the process.

Feeding Baby: How to Avoid Food Allergies

Starting to feed a baby solid foods is an exciting milestone for parents -- and one that also comes with a lot of new questions and concerns. What’s the best way to avoid food allergies once your baby has mastered single-grain cereals and is ready to move on to new foods? What foods are most likely to cause allergies in babies?

Start Gradually to Identify Any Food Allergies

It’s important to introduce baby to new foods gradually, and one at a time, in case of food allergies. Otherwise, you’ll have trouble tying an allergy to a specific new food.

It doesn’t matter all that much which foods you introduce to your baby, or which order you introduce them in, as long as the foods you are offering are healthy and well-balanced. But each time you offer a new food, consider waiting three to five days before adding another to the menu. Don’t eliminate all the other foods your baby is already eating during that time -- just don’t add any new food.

Babies and Allergies: The Top 8 Allergenic Foods

With each new food, you’ll want to be on the lookout for allergic reactions. There are more than 160 allergenic foods, but these eight foods and food groups are the culprits 90% of the time. You may want to wait until baby is older to try some of these foods, especially peanuts. In fact,  many experts suggest waiting until your child is 3 before trying peanuts. Ask your pediatrician if you have any questions about a food.

  • Milk
  • Egg
  • Peanuts
  • Tree nuts (such as walnuts or almonds)
  • Fish
  • Shellfish
  • Soy
  • Wheat

Food Allergy Symptoms to Watch for in Your Baby

Food allergy symptoms usually appear very soon after the food is eaten -- within a few minutes to a couple of hours. If you’re introducing a new food to your baby, keep an eye out for these symptoms:

  • Hives
  • Flushed skin or rash
  • Face, tongue, or lip swelling
  • Vomiting and/or diarrhea
  • Coughing or wheezing
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Loss of consciousness

The Allergy Kit is safe for all children, even safe for pregnant mothers. When the mother is treated before the baby is born, the baby is born without allergies. How does it get any better than that?
