Because peanut (peanut) may cause an allergic reaction depending on the constitution, in Japan, as "specified raw materials" in the Food Sanitation LawDefinedis. However, from the latest research, it is known that eating peanuts as babies increases the possibility of avoiding allergies after growing.

According to Professor Fideon Lack who is studying pediatric allergy at King's College London, 20,000 newborns are diagnosed as peanut allergy every year in Britain and the United States. Furthermore, the number of newborn babies with peanut allergy has tripled from 1995 to 2005, 10 years.

Therefore, Professor Lack conducted research on 550 babies who have allergic symptoms such as eczema when they ate peanuts. Of the 550 babies, half had the opportunity to eat peanuted foods by 11 months of age and the other half were raised only with breast milk. Then, the baby who was eating food containing peanuts could reduce the risk of allergy by 80% after growing, and it turned out that allergic reactions are less likely to occur even if you eat peanuts at the age of 6.

Professor Lack says, "Of the young children who participated in the study, children who had eaten peanuts at an early stage were clearly demonstrated that allergic reactions are less likely to occur even after growth." In addition, it is the world first that it turned out that "When you eat sweets containing peanuts as a baby you can reduce the risk of allergies".

Professor Lack says that the problem with peanut allergy is "fear of food". Professor Lack said, "Because parents and surrounding people of the newborn are fearing food allergies more than necessary, they move allergic food away from the child, so that children can not afford food resistance , It may cause allergies.

Barry Kay emeritus professor at Imperial College London said that "This study shows a completely new way of thinking about tolerance to food allergies." In addition, Professor Lack says, "Further research is needed on how long the allergy resistance to peanut will continue after growth by ingesting peanuts in the neonatal period."
