Your child's ear infection may be caused by diet. If you notice a specific time of year increasing the number of ear infections in your child, check their diet. One child often contracted ear infections right after Halloween. The dietary culprit was sugar.
While this isn't surprising, few medical doctors will associate time of year, diet and ear infections.
Other contenders for dietary factors of children's ear infections may include:
- milk and dairy products
- wheat and wheat products
- sugar
- chocolate
- peanuts or other nut products
- eggs
- citrus
- corn
- soy products
Any or all of these may be causing your child's ear aches and infections. Consider limiting your child's diet by eliminating all these products for a month and adding back one product at a time, for a month each, to determine which products are the culprit.
Food allergies cause many health issues. Consider these when looking at health care options and home remedies.
