Online and In-person Medical Nutrition Therapy for Children with Food Allergies

Food allergies can affect the entire family dynamic, changing the way families shop, eat, and experience food. As pediatric dietitian nutritionists in the St. Louis area, we provide patients and families with online and face-to-face evidence-based nutrition counseling. Our individualized sessions take into account each patient’s personal preferences, cultural traditions, and budget so we can make inclusive nutrition recommendations. We provide education and nutrition plans for families learning how to manage IgE-mediated and non-IgE mediated pediatric food allergies. If you suspect your child is experiencing a food allergy reaction, contact your pediatrician immediately.
