Signs and Symptoms of Food Sensitivities in Children: Understanding the Link with Behavioral Issues, Digestive Problems, Rashes, and ADHD and Autism

As a pediatric clinical nutritionist, I often encounter concerned parents seeking guidance on their child's food sensitivities. It's crucial to understand the signs and symptoms associated with food sensitivities, as they can manifest in various ways, including behavioral issues, digestive problems, rashes/eczema, and even attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Moreover, children with conditions like autism and ADHD are more prone to developing food sensitivities.
