This paper discusses the rising prevalence of allergic disease in children. This review article considers recent findings in the field of paediatric immune...

Environmental exposures including maternal inflammation, diet, nutrient balance, microbial colonization and toxin exposures can directly and indirectly...

The rise in food allergy is more rapid than genetic deviation would allow and the current consensus is that environmental factors integrally linked to the...
