During Food Allergy Awareness Week, Globowl baby foods takes a proactive approach to supporting allergy awareness by promoting an early and often introduction to common allergens in our baby foods.
Globowl recognizes the importance of introducing allergenic foods early in a baby's diet to help reduce the risk of developing food allergies later in life. Our baby food line includes carefully formulated recipes that incorporate common allergens such as peanuts, tree nuts, eggs, milk, wheat, soy, fish, and shellfish.
By including these allergens in our baby food recipes, we encourage parents to introduce these foods to their babies early and frequently, following recommendations from the USDA, NIH, FDA and AAP. This approach, known as early allergen introduction, aims to desensitize infants to potential allergens and promote tolerance.
During Food Allergy Awareness Week, Globowl actively promotes the benefits of early allergen introduction through various channels, including social media campaigns, educational resources, and partnerships with healthcare professionals and advocacy organizations. The emphasis is on the importance of starting solids with a diverse range of foods, including allergenic ones, under the guidance of a pediatrician or allergist.
By promoting early allergen introduction and supporting Food Allergy Awareness Week, Globowl baby foods plays a vital role in increasing awareness of food allergies and anaphylaxis and advocating for strategies to mitigate the risk of developing food allergies in children. Our dedication and commitment contributes to creating a safer and more inclusive environment for families affected by food allergies.
