On the latest episode of the Where Parents Talk podcast, host Lianne Castelino sits down with Malina Malkani, pediatric registered dietitian, bestselling author, and mom of three, to break down what parents really need to know about preventing and managing food allergies.

You’ll learn:

✔️ How to safely introduce peanuts, eggs, and more
✔️ What science says about eczema and the microbiome
✔️ Why there’s no “perfect” way to feed your baby
