Fun Fact Friday #15 - Food Allergies, Eczema, and Burns: What Every Parent Should Know
Welcome to another quick and snappy Fun Fact Friday episode of the Hera Health Hub Podcast! This week, Paediatric Dietitian Elise and Paediatric Nurse Consultant Ilana team up to share two fascinating and practical insights for parents.
Elise dives into the growing evidence around how exposure to food proteins through the skin, particularly in infants with eczema, can increase the risk of developing food allergies later in life. She explains how this process leads to sensitisation, and why being mindful of what goes onto your child’s skin is just as important as what goes into their mouth.
Ilana then shares her knowledge and experience on supporting children who experience burns, offering parents guidance on post-burn topical care and how the right dietary strategies can support healing from the inside out.
If you haven’t already listened to last week's episode with Ilana around Baby and Child first aid, head on back and give it a listen!
