Families with allergic children know the routine when it comes to the foods their child has reactions to: avoid, avoid, avoid. New research suggests this doesn’t always have to be the case.

Most parents don’t like the idea of their children breathing in dirty air, but might not know whether or not it has long term consequences. Unfortunately, it does.

Every once in a while, an old wives' tale is actually based in medicine. Such is the case with giving children honey to control a nighttime cough.

Food allergies can show up in many ways. For young children, a dairy allergy may show up as congestion in the ear, nose or throat.

Pregnant moms, listen up: Stay away from areas with high air pollution. It can hurt your growing baby, especially if your child develops asthma.

The joke is that experienced parents don't clean off a pacifier after it falls on the floor. A few extra germs just build the immune system, right? Well, they may be on to something.

The beginning of the allergy march in babies and young children may originate from food allergies. Food allergies often begin in babies as early as three months old.
