✨ The gut microbiome is everything 👏🏻👏🏻

10/17/2025

One of the most common fears I see in parents who have babies with food allergies or intolerances is introducing new foods. It’s tough sometimes figuring out which foods are truly causing the reactions. It can feel overwhelming — especially when you’re doing it solo! 😩

By identifying those triggers and introducing foods without fear is possible. It definitely takes patience, guidance, and consistency, but once you know what works for your baby, mealtime can become a lot less stressful!

Hi, I’m Kristen, a pediatric registered dietitian this is exactly what I help parents with — comment ‘GUT’ to schedule a free call and see how we can work together to navigate your baby’s food sensitivities & tummy issues and make feeding time easier for both of you. 🫶🏼

👏 Let’s give a shoutout to the first 1,000 days!

Research shows that babies with food allergies often have gut bacteria similar to babies without allergies. But if balance isn’t supported by around age 3, the microbiome becomes more “set” — and allergies are more likely to persist.

That’s why this early window is CRUCIAL for shaping your baby’s gut + immune system.

✔️ Offer a variety of age-appropriate foods (including allergens with guidance)
✔️ Support the gut with functional nutrition like pectins, resistant starch & polyphenols
✔️ Build gut diversity through fermented foods + spices

These simple steps can make a BIG difference in whether food allergies stick around or fade away.

💚 Curious how nutrition can shape your baby’s gut + allergy risk? Comment “GUT” below and let’s chat about the best next step for your family.

Food inclusion >> restriction 🫜🧅

There’s a lot of noise on social media promoting unnecessary food fears or claiming to cure illnesses or sell magic supplements. Far too many families come to me with only a handful of “safe” foods!

As a practitioner and RDN I’m different from ChatGPT and influencers because I truly listen to your needs and goals and provide guidance based on experience and expertise! My recommendations not only come from science but they come from a true heartfelt commitment to your child’s well being.

I focus on adding foods rather than restricting them, after all that’s what a healthy gut truly needs. Sometimes we do remove foods for a short period, but you’ll always have substitutions and a plan to bring those foods back in!

With extensive training in malnutrition and undernutrition, I know firsthand that long‑term restriction isn’t the answer!

If you’re stuck with just a few safe foods for your baby or child, please reach out. I want to help you feel confident feeding your kids and give them every opportunity to grow and thrive the gut healthy way! 💚

Comment or DM TUMMY and I’ll help you set up a free call to chat and see if we’d be a good fit to work together! This may be the missing piece for you too 🫶🏼
