- Peanut allergy affects 3% of children.
- 20% of children will have allergy remission by age 5y – with the greatest chance in those with a SPT <6mm, or serum peanut specific IgE <3kUA/L (Ho et al. 2008 JACI)
- There is good evidence that for infants with severe eczema and/or egg allergy, that regular peanut intake before 12 months of age can reduce the risk of developing peanut allergy
