Study: 60,000 Children Avoided Peanut Allergies Following 2015 Early Introduction Guidelines

Summary

A new study finds that approximately 60,000 children have avoided developing peanut allergies following landmark 2015 guidance that recommended introducing peanut products to infants as early as 4 months old. This represents a significant real-world impact of the 2015 recommendations that reversed previous medical advice to avoid early peanut exposure, based on a decade of research showing early introduction can prevent life-threatening allergies.
