In fact the numbers can invoke a sense of unease as rates of some food allergies have been doubling every 10 years. The rise in food allergies is an ultimate rise in suffering, but I’m encouraged that new research can help us reverse the trend. Latest guidelines and research can help us get ahead of food allergies by introducing foods early and often. The last few years have been productive in our understanding of better ways to reduce risks for food allergies. I know first-hand how pervasive peanut allergy can be for my patients and I am respectful of what parents who have kids with a peanut allergy go through.
