Allergies

It is always advisable to avoid and remove things that are known to trigger a reaction in a sensitive child, but what is more important is to consider is why the child is so hypersensitive or allergic to begin with?  

One important risk for the development of allergies is lack of breast-feeding and a high dietary ratio of omega-6 fatty acids to omega-3 ...Read more fats.
Eating protein-rich and fat-rich foods of animal origin – meat, cheese, fried food and saturated fat – is associated with a higher prevalence of allergies.

Children need a diet rich in omega-3 fat as well as lots of fruit and vegetables.
Eating high antioxidant- and phytochemical-containing foods is related to lower occurrence of childhood allergies.
