This paper investigates the effectiveness of early peanut protein introduction and immunotherapy in preventing and treating peanut allergy. The authors find that introducing peanut protein early significantly reduces allergy prevalence, with optimal prevention strategies differing for low and high-risk infants. Additionally, they highlight that immunotherapy is more effective when started in younger children, emphasizing the critical need for early intervention.
