Food Allergy Trends: The Rise of Food Allergies
Food allergies among children are rising dramatically. There are many causes for the growing prevalence in the U.S., that may include Vitamin D insufficiency, decreased exposure to germs and allergens, and food allergen avoidance. In total, food allergies now affect as many 1 in 12 children in the United States. Unfortunately, there is no cure for food allergies, which can be severe and potentially life-threatening, in addition to quality of life impacts. Recent research shows that up to 1 in 3 food allergic children are bullied as a direct result of having a food allergy.
Bringing New Research on Early Allergen Introduction Home for Babyscripts Families
Fortunately, new research shows that early introduction of allergenic foods can help give babies healthier outcomes. With this new partnership, Babyscripts has now embedded food allergy education, recommendations, and guidance from Ready. Set. Food!’s team of leading pediatricians and allergists to ensure new parents are informed on the latest research and guidelines on early allergen introduction. These customized educational materials with up-to-date food allergy guidance include:
