Not every food allergy
looks like an allergy.
Some food allergies present in unusual ways that are frequently missed or diagnosed as something else.
When you care for a child day after day, you see them up close. Without a deeper understanding of these allergies, it is hard to know what you are looking at, or how to talk with the parents about it.
Food Allergies in Depth starts with the basics, then goes in depth into FPIES, EOE and related conditions, including where the body is impacted, what symptoms will likely be present and how they are treated. That deeper understanding helps you better support the child.
