The benefits of breast feeding well described in this journal. Please support the allergic infant who breast feeds with a dietitian to assist with supervised maternal food exclusion and then planned reintroduction. The baby who has a reaction whilst breast feeding needs referral.
Breast milk is an immunologic support system, varying between mothers. Immunomodulatory factors (e.g., HMOs, cytokines, IgA) reflect microbial & antigenic load and genetics, influencing infant gut microbiome & immune system, protecting against allergies.

This disorder needs so much more attention. Food avoidance due to food allergies in infancy may become food refusal in children and food phobia in young adult life. Or does it? Are other disorders associated such as communication disorder, problems with food textures?
Those working in

#ARFID
, or Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder. This eating disorder is not focused on body image, but rather, avoidance of adverse experiences related to eating.
