Food allergen introduction practices and parent/caregiver attitudes based on family history of food allergy
Findings suggest that respondents with food-allergic parents and siblings are more likely to have many of the most prevalent allergens introduced at younger ages, which could be due to knowledge related to the NIAID-sponsored guidelines and other national guidance, but that even among these higher-risk families overall rates of "early" introduction during infancy still remain relatively low.
