Why peanuts specifically, though? There isn’t an epidemic of people being allergic to exotic foods/ingredients from other cultures that they wouldn’t have been exposed to early in life.
@@fastenbulbous and how do you know that? Peanut story has been propagated by some doctor association and accepted by mainstream. Unless exotic fruit death raise public awareness, you won’t know about it.
Google “why are peanut allergies so severe” if you want a detailed answer, but the short summary is: “The combination of multiple allergens, numerous immune binding sites, heat stability, digestion stability, enzyme blocking, and the effect on the gut lining”
YES! The parents of the 1970s and 1980s were NEVER told to keep their babies in a peanut-free bubble. Clearly, some change out there led to the proliferation of peanut allergies. Could it be certain chemicals? Too much ultra-processed junk food food? Something else?
We introduced peanuts to my son's diet at 6momths old. This was when we found out he had a severe peanut allergy. During my partners pregnancy, we ate all different nuts including peanuts, so we find it bizarre that, he would have this allergy.
“Why not show some humility!” Because that’s the problem. There is none to show amongst bureaucrats. None of the incentives promote humility, especially among high-level bureaucrats. And let’s be clear. The people, the masses, want and need confidence and even absolutism and bombast in their experts. It’s not just the expert bureaucrat problem. It’s also their “hosts” in the parasitic sense. Ask doctors. Patients want a confident “do this!” Rather than a lesson in statistical probabilities and RCT lingo. So it’s a rather thorny, synergistic, very human problem.
Humility gets trounced by malpractice costs and administrators. Parents really are out there on their own now. 40 years ago I was cautioned to write therapy home programs as if I would be getting sued the next day. Things have only gotten worse. I feel sorry for parents AND doctors. Do not let your kids go to medical school unless they insist. Far better careers out there with less stress and still lots of $$$ and status. Lots of them.
I hope science can figure this thing out. I am the youngest of 5 kids born to the same parents. I was born in the 90's when peanut allergies were a bit of a novelty. I'm the ONLY kid in my family with a food allergy. My poor mom went crazy trying to figure out what she did. Obviously, it was a freak situation and not her fault. I still carry an epi pen, although I've never had a reaction. Apparently, I'm amazing at avoiding peanuts because a recent blood test proved I'm still highly allergic to them.
I’m grateful that even in my part of the country (deep blue state) our pediatricians always encouraged us to gradually introduce peanuts and other possible allergens as early as possible. Our second daughter had a slight reaction to peanuts at 5 months or so. So we held off for a couple months, and very slowly gave her larger amounts of peanut products in her meals. Lo and behold: no problems.
I was born in 1949 and have since consumed copious amounts of peanut butter love it still. Growing up I never heard of anyone with any degree of peanut allergies much less anaphylactic shock. Crazy why would you listen to such stupid advice about food when there was not a problem with earlier generations?
I am from Romania and I don't know anybody with any allergies. I moved to USA 22 years a go and almost everyone have a allergies to one food or another.
I think American agro-chemicals/ pesticides and food additives might also be playing a role. Once we understand the intestine / microbiome better, all will be revealed.
So my granddaughter who breaks out in hives and has difficulty breathing when exposed to peanuts is the effect of "the medical establishment"? It's already difficult to convince her teachers that she has a real problem and to keep an EpiPen available for anaphylaxis. I only accessed the short version and am unconvinced. How about offering an alternative rather than an opinion that endangers her life? You've lost me on this one.
It now seems that the peanut butter no longer being sold is now saving lives of many babies and young children in 3rd world countries. At least a good outcome from the crazy overreaction to a few cases of peanut allergy.
How is it saving the lives of many babies? I thought the argument was that abstinence was making pean allergy more severe and that actually introducing peantuts earlier (in small doses of course) had kept peanut allery rates AND reaction severity much lower

I’m really, really curious about this as peanut allergies were unheard of in the 1970’s and 1980’s.

@@nothing1099No peanuts are not gmo and you could eat organic and avoid the chemicals.

I will make peanut butter straight from my peanuts no matter what! Just gonna smeck than little harder

And yet they say it’s the greatest place on earth to live…I guess if you enjoy the smell of medical equipment and never ending doctor visits LOL!!
jmo it may be a pesticide allergy, some people respond to some pesticides differently and peanuts are soaked in pesticides
Organic peanuts are not
I think American agro-chemicals/ pesticides and food additives might also be playing a role. Once we understand the intestine / microbiome better, all will be revealed.
Glad I do not have this as I LOVE pb!
so many pesticides on peanuts you are probably better off avoiding
I only eat organic peanut butter, no problem with that.

😂 did you miss the whole show
Amazing that I’m still able to go to my local supermarket and find shelves loaded with organic and non organic peanut butter.
Stick with the SENNA apparel.

So what are they supposed to use
Peanuts are poison
