• When should my child start SpoonfulOne?

  SpoonfulOne products were designed to be started in infancy and enjoyed through toddlerhood. Our Mix-ins were specially designed to be given to children starting as early as 4-months of age, once they have begun eating solid foods. As children grow, they can continue with our Mix-ins or try other formats like our Puffs. Mix and match any of our products!

• What is SpoonfulOne?

  SpoonfulOne has a purpose: to help protect your baby from developing a food allergy.* Created by a leading pediatric allergist, SpoonfulOne is based on landmark research as well as proprietary studies. Designed specifically for the Food Allergy Protection Plan, each serving includes all of the food groups responsible for over 90% of food allergies. Each product includes a spoonful of our Foundational Food Blend—small, safe amounts of peanuts, milk, shellfish (shrimp), tree nuts (almond, cashew, hazelnut, pecan, pistachio, and walnut), egg, fish (cod and salmon), grains (wheat and oat), soy, and sesame. With such precise portions, it takes repeated dietary exposure over time to safely allow your baby’s immune system to grow up accustomed to a diverse range of foods. Feeding your baby SpoonfulOne each day, starting as early as 4-months-old and continuing through early childhood, helps train his or her tummy to accept food as food, rather than as an allergen. For consistency and convenience, SpoonfulOne is available in various forms to meet the growing needs of children. Our Mix-in is ideal for children, starting as early as 4-months-old. Then, once children are accustomed to chewing solid foods, our Strawberry and Maple Puffs are the perfect, on-the-go snack.

• My child is 6 months old. Is it too late to start SpoonfulOne?

  A food allergy prevention strategy requires starting before a food allergy develops. Research says that early and regular dietary exposure to a food may reduce the risk of a child developing an allergy to that food.* So, early is better than later. But, later is better than never. The most important consideration is starting before a child develops a food allergy, which can happen at any time as they grow up. SpoonfulOne is not for children who have been diagnosed with a food allergy.

• Why should I give my child SpoonfulOne?

  SpoonfulOne helps to protect your child from developing a food allergy.* Over the last generation, food allergy rates have accellerated dramatically. In fact, 2 out of 3 children who develop a food allergy did not have a parent with a food allergy. Babies are not born with food allergies. They develop them over time. But leading research shows that early and regular dietary exposure to foods like peanut may reduce the risk of a child developing an allergy to that food. Each SpoonfulOne product includes a spoonful of our Foundational Food Blend—small, safe training portions of peanuts, milk, shellfish (shrimp), tree nuts (almond, cashew, hazelnut, pecan, pistachio, and walnut), egg, fish (cod and salmon), grains (wheat and oat), soy, and sesame. With such a precise formula, it takes repeated dietary exposure over time to safely allow your baby’s immune system to grow up accustomed to a diverse range of foods. Feeding your baby SpoonfulOne each day, starting as early as 4-months-old and continuing through early childhood, helps train his or her tummy to accept food as food, rather than as an allergen.

• How long should my child take SpoonfulOne?

  SpoonfulOne is made with precise portions, so it takes repeated dietary exposures over time to safely, and gently, allow your baby’s immune system to grow up accustomed to a diverse range of foods. Scientific studies, such as LEAP and EAT, showed that early, consistent dietary exposures for 3-5 years resulted in dramatic reductions in risk. As a result, both the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and the American Academy of Allergy Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI), recommend including a diverse range of foods, including potential allergens, as early as 4 months of age and continuing dietary exposure from infancy through childhood.
