Your kid won't eat, seems anxious around food, or keeps getting food stuck. You've done allergy testing—it's normal. But something's clearly wrong. It might not be a typical food allergy at all. It might be eosinophilic esophagitis, and it's way more common than most doctors realize.

In this episode, Dr. Doug Jones breaks down EOE—think of it as asthma, but in your esophagus. Unlike traditional allergies, standard allergy tests miss it completely. The symptoms shift depending on age: babies refuse feeds, kids eat slowly and seem anxious, adults end up in the ER with food stuck. Dairy and gluten are the usual culprits, and seasonal pollen can make it worse.The real game-changer?

Understanding that dilation without treating the root cause is a Band-Aid, not a cure. Plus, Dr. Jones clears up the myths about IgG panels and "gut healing" supplements that prey on desperate parents. If you've been told your child has a behavioral eating problem or anxiety issue, this conversation might change everything.
