    Food Allergy, Intolerance, or Something Else? FPIES Explained
    2026/03/18
    What if your child reacts to a food—but it doesn’t look like a typical food allergy? Maybe it's FPIES! Allergy specialist Christopher Parrish, MD. explains Food Protein–Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES). Unlike typical food allergies, FPIES reactions happen hours after eating and can cause severe vomiting without the usual signs like hives or swelling. That's why it’s often missed. Dr. Parrish explains why it can be difficult to diagnose and how families manage it once they know what’s going on.

  • Protein: Are We Overdoing It? (What Kids Really Need)

    Protein: Are We Overdoing It? (What Kids Really Need)
    2026/03/11
    Protein is everywhere — in coffee, cereal, waffles, even potato chips. But are we low on protein? Or are we being sold a solution to a problem we don’t have? What does protein do in the body, how much do adults and kids need, and how were those numbers created? I’ll break down common myths — including whether plant proteins are “incomplete,” whether more protein builds more muscle, and whether high-protein foods are healthier. Here’s the surprising truth: most American families are already getting plenty of protein. What we’re missing is fiber, and antioxidants — the nutrients that truly protect long-term health.
