A new study suggests that children with milder forms of peanut sensitivity may be able to overcome their allergy by gradually consuming increasing amounts of store-bought peanut butter under the supervision of an allergist.
Children with milder forms of peanut sensitivity may be able to overcome their allergy by consuming increasing amounts of store-bought peanut butter, a new study suggests. All of the 32 children in the study who received 18 months of this immunotherapy were able to consume the equivalent of three tablespoons of peanut butter without experiencing reactions, according to the report published Monday in NEJM Evidence.
The peanut protein increases occurred only when children were under the care of an allergist, in case they had a reaction. Once children were able to eat a tablespoon of peanut butter each day, they were told they did not need to consume it every day, but should consume two tablespoons per week.
