3. Stomach Allergy in Infants and Children

Some infants and children who are allergic to certain foods such as milk, oat, and rice may also have a stomach allergy to avocados. This allergy can lead to vomiting and diarrhea in affected individuals. Kids generally have much more sensitive systems than adults and many allergies and sensitivities they will grow out of as they get older. As always, when first introducing new foods to your baby, introduce them one at a time as single-ingredient foods. Don’t add other ingredients or flavoring agents. This is because, if they do have a reaction, you want to be able to know if it was to the food itself, in this case avocados. If the avocado is mixed with different spices or other ingredients, you won’t be able to tell what the child is actually reacting to.
