Early Peanut Exposure Drastically Reduces Allergy Risk, Study Finds
A study published in NEJM Evidence found that children who consume peanut products from infancy are significantly less likely to develop peanut allergies by early adolescence. The research, which followed over 500 participants until age 12, supports previous findings and suggests that early exposure to peanuts can lead to long-term tolerance. Despite expert recommendations, many parents remain unaware that introducing peanuts early is safe and beneficial.
