About this listen
In this episode of The Gut Whisperers Podcast, Dr. Nelson Spinetti, pediatric gastroenterologist, unpacks one of the most common yet often misunderstood infant conditions — cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA). From the first signs of fussiness or eczema to confirmed diagnosis and safe management, this conversation will help parents, pediatricians, and caregivers recognize what's happening beneath the surface.
You'll learn:
• The difference between IgE and non-IgE–mediated reactions and why timing matters.
• How elimination diets and allergy testing can confirm CMPA safely.
• Practical strategies for managing symptoms, choosing the right formula, and knowing when to seek medical help.
Through the story of baby Emma, you'll see how early recognition and the right plan can restore comfort, connection, and peace at feeding time.
