Eating avocados during pregnancy reduces food allergy risk for babies
- A new study published in Pediatric Research found that eating avocados during pregnancy reduces babies' risk of food allergies by 44%.
- The study analyzed 2,272 mother-infant pairs in Finland and adjusted for factors like diet quality, smoking, and breastfeeding.
- Infants whose mothers consumed fresh avocado had a food allergy rate of 2.4%, compared to 4.2% among infants of non-avocado consumers.
- A researcher from the University of Eastern Finland emphasized that while the study highlights the potential benefits of avocados, it does not prove a cause-and-effect relationship and its results may not be applicable to everyone.
- These results emphasize the potential benefits of avocados for maternal and child health, although additional studies are required to clarify the mechanisms involved.
