Now here’s an interesting one, even more so because it’s counter-intuitive. If you don’t want your child to have a peanut allergy, or indeed any allergy, give them all the common allergic foods as a baby. So that means they eat strawberries, cheese, fish, egg, milk, sesame seeds and nuts, including peanuts, before they’re one year old.
Most parents would shrink from testing this out but I assure you it’s the smartest way to reduce their risk.
And don’t forget most African babies are weaned on peanuts and there’s precious little peanut allergy there.
