RE: peanut allergy
I spoke to my allergist about this. I have peanut
allergy and so does my oldest daughter. I had heard
about the study sponsored by Nestle. It was in
Newsweek. He explained to me that a child can become
sensitized to peanuts through breastmilk or during
pregnancy. A child cannot inherit a specific allergy
but the propensity to allergies. It is these children
that can become sensitized.
