WEBINAR: A Decade in the Making: Where We Are Now on Strategies to Prevent Food Allergy
A session on the progress made since the 2015 publication of the LEAP study in developing and promoting evidence-based infant feeding practices.
Wednesday, July 23, 1:00 p.m.–2:00 p.m. ET
The landmark LEAP (Learning Early About Peanut Allergy) Study, published in 2015, demonstrated that early and consistent consumption of infant-safe forms of peanut foods reduced the risk of children developing peanut allergy by as much as 80%. A decade later, we celebrate this pivotal research and the growing body of evidence supporting proactive food allergy prevention strategies.
Join us at 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday, July 23, when our expert presenter Dr. Carina Venter will guide learners through the latest prevention guidelines from both the United States and international bodies. The session will spotlight emerging research in food allergy prevention and provide practical guidance and key clinical takeaways for healthcare professionals to educate and support new caregivers on evidence-based infant feeding practices.
This live webinar awards 1 CPEU in accordance with the Commission on Dietetic Registration’s CPEU Prior Approval Program.
