If you are thinking of adding a certain food back into your child's diet, talk to your allergist first. Most foods can be eliminated from any diet without compromising nutrition. One exception to this is milk. If you eliminate milk entirely from your child's diet, your child will need to eat other sources of calcium and possibly take a calcium supplement. Talk to your doctor or a registered pediatric dietitian before eliminating milk from your child's diet.
Food allergies are often misunderstood.
With the right information, a food allergy can go from a deadly concern to a minor change in behavior.
