Abstract

Authors´ conclusions: the early introduction of egg or peanut to the infant diet was associated with lower risk of developing egg or peanut allergy. These findings should be considered in the context of limitations in the primary studies

Reviewers´ commentary: there is probably no justification for the delay in the introduction of some foods such as eggs and peanuts to prevent allergy to them. This recommendation can even be harmful. There is no evidence to make a recommendation on the most appropriate time to introduce them
