Effect of early childhood cow's milk elimination diet on eating behaviours, nutrition and growth status at age 2–6 years
Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics Jun 23, 2021
Ercan N, et al. - Researchers conducted this cross-sectional, case-control study to examine the eating behaviour, nutritional status, and growth of Caucasian children in ages 2–6 years who had a diet because of cow's milk protein allergy (CMA) [immunoglobulin (Ig)E-mediated and/or non-IgE-mediated] in early childhood. The cow's milk elimination (CME) group included children aged 0–2 years who were on a CME diet due to CMA, as determined by an oral food challenge test, and had been reintroduced to cow's milk for at least ≥ 3 months. The control group's diet was never restricted. A total of 62 children with a median age of 32 months were selected for the study. Dietary interventions due to CMA at the age of 0–2 years can influence children's nutritional habits and parental-reported assessment of children's eating behaviours, resulting in growth restriction with insufficient micro/macronutrients and/or dairy products at the age of 2–6 years.
