Peanut Allergy Reduction with Early Age Peanut Eating

UK's New England Journal of Medicine conducted a study on children in early ages. They have come to a very interesting finding that those kids which eat peanuts in early days are not getting allergies when getting younger. Small doze in any form helps immune system to recognize and develop internal system to resist any side effects on skin.


Journel study said that 70% to 80% children become risk free for parents. Now England parents are instructed to take baby and introduce to peanuts with minor doze. Scientists started experimenting on kids from age 2 and make two groups. One with introduction to peanuts and other not. When they are 5 years old, a practical peanut allergy test is conducted to obsere response. Dramitically 13% got allergy from peanut which were not given its dosez. And only 3% from other group got allergic.

Human immune system needs time to learn new micro-bodies in blood and develop antibodies for it. It works just like vaccines. When a new born is injected with polio or other vaccine, it contains dead viruses or bacteria of that disease. Child's immune system learn to fight them and help make his/her future safe. The above method may also be adopted for other food allergy items.
