Peanut allergies very in severity from mild to potentially fatal. How do these infants get this allergic reactions? Does it have to do with what the mother eats while expecting, particularly peanuts? Can anything be done for prevention? That is why current research is being taken place to see if this theory is true or not.
Opinion:
Research on peanut allergies and what causes them has been done in the past. However recently, more research is being taken place to test whether this really is the cause or not. It is a possibility genetics may also play a role in the allergy. There are numerous theory's on where and how peanut allergies come from. Though with this new theory of pregnant woman consuming peanuts increasing the risk of allergy, scientists are gathering data like never before. I will be interested to see what they discover, and if it really is what the pregnant woman are eating!
