This month, learn about a Canadian study that reinforces that early introduction of peanuts reduces the prevalence of food allergy. 


Research: Canadian study reinforces the early introduction of peanuts 

A recent Canadian study shows that introducing peanuts well before the age of three years old in babies’ diets has helped reduce the prevalence of allergies in this study population.  

The effect of early introduction recommendations on allergies had never before been evaluated in Canada. The study results reinforce the importance of adopting these recommendations to help decrease rates of food allergy, and reduce costs and the use of healthcare system resources.
