Microorganisms maintain a complex interrelationship with the human body, influencing each other. In recent years, people have gradually realized that the formation of the pediatric microecosystem is closely related to the development of gastrointestinal and even systemic immunity in children. The establishment of the pediatric microecosystem during childhood has significant implications for various diseases in adulthood. They are crucial for the host's nutrition, metabolism, resistance to pathogens, and immune function. Increasing evidence supports the association between gut microbiota abnormalities and the pathophysiology of food allergies, but the conclusions of existing clinical efficacy studies remain controversial. Previous research by the team has found that the gut microbiome has a clear impact on the occurrence and development of digestive and allergic diseases in children.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Intestinal microbiome analysis — The time point of confirming food allergy and the age of 36 months The fecal samples from all participants will be collected and subjected to high-throughput metagenomic sequencing in order to elucidate the characteristics and composition of the intestinal microbiome in children with food allergies.
Intestinal microbiome metabolites analysis — The time point of confirming food allergy and the age of 36 months This will be detected and analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) non-targeted metabolomics to analyze the metabolites of the intestinal microbiome.
