## Transcript

Long, long ago in the year 2000, the American Academy of Pediatrics told parents to keep their kids away from these. Peanuts. But that was then, this is now. Welcome to 2015. Now the nut shell is getting cracked in. In the other direction. A trial included around 600 babies younger than a year old who were considered at risk of developing peanut allergies. It found the risk of developing the peanut allergy was cut by more than 80 % when they ate the food. Earlier in life. The randomized trial was published in The New England Journal of Medicine which first notes that in the past ten years peanut allergies in children have doubled in western countries.

Babies were randomly assigned to a group that ate peanuts or didn't. They continued to be fed peanuts until they were five years old. The research found early exposure means less chance of developing peanut allergies. The basis of the study started several years ago, when researchers found peanut allergies in Jewish children in the U. K. were ten times higher than Israeli children of similar ancestry. Peanuts introduced into Israeli children's life earlier than they are for children in the UK. The BBC says specialists think the finding could change diets, but warned parents not to experiment at home.

The US Food and Drug Administration recognizes peanuts as one of the top eight most common allergic foods. It's classified as a major food allergen
