“Food protein induced gut manifestations
- Clinical aspect of GI allergy in childhood”
Invitation to Nutricia’s Symposium, 4th November 2014
Nutricia is pleased to invite doctors and dietitians working with allergic children to a
symposium about food protein induced gut manifestations. An expert panel of appreciated
and interesting speakers from both UK and Sweden will be lecturing. This is a Nordic initiative
and there will be representatives from all the Nordic countries attending the meeting. The
Program covers the practical understanding and management of common
gastroenterological problems, as well as tips on more complex patients. The speakers will
focus on recently developed international guidelines on the diagnosis and management of
paediatric GI disorders.
We hope this will be an inspiring day with new scientific input, and interesting discussions.
Welcome!
