Introduction of allergenic food to infants and allergic and autoimmune conditions: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions
This systematic review and meta-analysis shows that early introduction of allergen-containing food from 4 to 12 months of age, was associated with lower risk of multiple food allergy and eczema. Further research on other allergenic foods, and their long-term impact on food allergy and autoimmune risk is essential for enhancing our understanding on development of these conditions and guiding future clinical recommendations.
