Infant Feeding Resources

Research shows that giving your baby the common allergy causing foods before they are one year of age can greatly reduce the risk of them developing an allergy to that food. To help you Introduce the common allergy causing foods one at a time, the National Allergy Strategy has developed a number of practical resources including videos, food ideas and recipe booklets.
