Early Introduction and Sustained Ingestion (EISI) Using Two Educational Opportunities in Infants

Early Introduction and Sustained Ingestion (EISI) Using Two Educational Opportunities - A Pilot Study

Sponsor

Stanford University

Enrollment

92 participants

Start Date

Jun 30, 2026

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Food allergy

Summary

The objective of the study is to see whether early feeding of potentially allergic foods can be increased with educational materials alone or with educational materials and additional in-person support opportunities. This study will help guide what types of support pediatricians and allergists give to new parents.

Eligibility

Min Age: 4 MonthsMax Age: 11 Months

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

Interventions

BEHAVIORALEducation and Opportunities on Early Introduction

The participant will receive and review three educational modules on the basics of food allergy, food allergy reactions, food allergen introduction, feeding safety and readiness, fiber, fermented food, ultra processed foods, diet diversity, and advancing food textures in the infant diet. The educational sessions will take approximately one hour to review every month for three months.

BEHAVIORALClinician Supervised Feeding of Known Allergenic Food

Clinician supervised feeding introduction of a known allergenic food (hen's egg, cow's milk, peanut, tree nuts, soy, wheat, fin fish, shellfish, and sesame) to the infant at least one time during the 6 month enrollment. The feeding is required for the intervention group and optional for the standard-of-care (SOC) group. Participants in the SOC group who do not introduce any known allergenic foods at home into the infant's diet by the end of 3 months enrollment will be required to return to the clinic for a clinician supervised feeding of a known allergenic food of their choice. The clinic feeding will last approximately 1 hour.
