You can't read the full article without an online subscription, but
I'd LOVE to hear any Lactnet opinions on this piece and the research
cited.  I just read my hardcopy and this jumped out at me:

"[Dr. Gideon] Lack is also conducting a study funded by the Food
Standards Agency and the Medical Research Council, in the United
Kingdom, about when to wean children from breast-feeding and how a
baby's consumption of allergenic foods affects her later development
of allergies.  As part of that work, he is examining thirteen hundred
babies in the United Kingdom."
