Ten years ago the only people worried about gluten were those with celiac disease.


So...as people ate more and more products with gluten, the incidence of sensitivities and hyper-sensitivities increased, (much like peanut allergies). I heard of 1 kid when I was growing up that had a peanut allergy. Now, you hear about it everywhere. I'm sure people are just making that up, too...because it is so en vogue to not eat peanuts...right?

Too much cleanliness, not enough germs.

Not exposing your kids to nuts in fear that they might be allergic, or overreacting if they get a little flushed when the eat peanut butter.

In short, we're making our kids too soft by being overprotective

this is because we started introducing peanuts later and later to our kids in fear of the allergy

recent studies have shown that the later you introduce something to a kid, the more likely they are to form an allergy to it

so, in short, give your kid peanut butter early and he/she is less likely to have an allergy to it
