Wouldn’t this be good if it works. There’s been a bit in the news lately,that we should be exposing our kids to risky foods at younger ages to avoid so many allergy problems

I’ve also read of research into whether vitamin d deficiency could be part of the rise in allergies. Nowadays we lather ourselves with sunscreen so don’t get as much vitamin d, which can have all sorts of health consequences. It’s all very interesting

This is interesting, will see what the results are.

I am interested in the study about low vitamin D levels in the pregnant mother and the link to allergies in the child. I would like to read more about the increase in preservatives and processed food and the impact that would be having.

This would be interesting to follow. Keep us posted for the findings!

But most babies get this vaccine and still have allergies

I know a toddler who had severe croup. He has been fully vaccinated. Had we not known that his coughing and wheezing was as bad as whooping cough can sound. He had to be propped up to sleep. At least he got a little bit of sleep.

Sounds like this is well worth exploring. Lets hope future research can tell us whether or not it would help.

Hopefully to find some answers

What a wonderful break through this might be.

Good that researchers are working on a cure for allergies.

  I agree- work on allergies is research that is worthwhile and will impact on so many families.

It doesn’t seem conclusive. More tests would need to be done.

I would love to know what’s causing the rising rate of allergies, so I would be interested to know the result. In saying that, even once this research is complete, more studies will still need to be done to confirm any findings they have.

This is interesting, I haven’t heard about this before.

This is a theory and a trial.

Thanks for sharing ! More research is sure a good thing.

The one thing that bothered me was my 3rd child’s reaction to the whooping cough vaccine. It frightened the hell out of me and he was the only one who was not fully protected. In his mid teens he developed a modified version of it. I never want to go through that again and so many places we had to tell as he was riding buses and doing work experience plus has a paper run. I would prefer food allergies then whooping cough. Glad it is not so bad getting it now.

I’d much rather the pain in the bum of food allergies than a dead child

Always great to do research but I’d hate to see people contracting whooping cough because they were frightened of food allergies before the research is even started.

Yes I agree more research needs to be done the anti Vaxxers will be having a field day
I would rather my child have a food allergy then not get vaccinated at all and die
