This week on the  Moms on Call podcast, Jennifer and Laura speak with Dr. Alice Hoyt, an allergist, and Catherine Jaxon, co-founder of Mission Mighty Me. The episode focuses on the importance of early and regular introduction of allergenic foods to infants to prevent food allergies. Dr. Hoyt explains the historical context and findings of the LEAP study, which demonstrated that early introduction of peanuts can significantly reduce the risk of developing peanut allergies. Catherine shares her personal journey and the creation of Mission Mighty Me, a company offering nutritious snacks designed to help parents easily incorporate peanuts and tree nuts into their children's diets. The conversation emphasizes the need for early and consistent exposure to allergens, aligning with updated pediatric guidelines, and highlights the practical solutions provided by Mission Mighty Me to support parents in this endeavor.  Follow Dr. Alice Hoyt on Instagram at @hoytfoodallergy and check out her podcast 'Food Allergy and your Kiddo'.  Use code ‘MOMSONCALL15’ for 15% off a one-time purchase, or 30% total off your first subscription order at missionmightyme.com Valid until 12/31/25
