The actual incidence of food allergies in babies is very small - about 5-6%. And the good news is that babies and children tend to grow out of allergies like cow’s milk or egg allergy by the age of 2 or 3

Childhood food allergies are on the increase, so it’s natural that some parents might be nervous about introducing foods that could cause problems. But it’s good to note that the actual incidence of food allergy in babies is very small - about 5-6%.

An example of this is in Israel where young children regularly eat Bamba – a snack which contains peanuts, and over there they actually have a very low case of peanut allergies. The best thing you can do is to introduce new foods one by one, leaving a day or two between each one, to see if there’s a reaction.Cow’s milk allergy is one of the most common childhood food allergies. It is estimated to affect between 2% and 7.

In the first year, babies will need up to 600ml of hypoallergenic formula a day to meet their nutritional requirements. The Department of Health recommends giving a supplement of vitamin D and A to all children over 6 months who are given breast milk as their main milk source.
