In this episode, Elise breaks down the 2026 infant feeding and food allergy prevention updates from ASCIA and what they mean for families. She revisits what hasn’t changed, clarifies what has, and provides practical guidance on how and when to introduce common allergens with confidence. From peanut and egg timing to ongoing weekly exposure, this episode translates the latest evidence into simple, realistic advice parents can actually use.
Elise also takes a deeper dive into the most talked-about update regarding cow’s milk formula supplementation in the first week of life. She explains the research behind the recommendation, puts the evidence into context, and gently reassures families that there is no place for guilt when decisions were made based on the information and support available at the time.
So if you want clearer guidance around these new updates, or you’d like to feel more confident about introducing common allergens, then this episode is for you.
