Possible reasons for allergies

Theories for why the number of allergies is rising:

  • Decreased exposure to infections or microbes in early life. This is known as the hygiene hypothesis.
  • Delayed introduction of allergenic foods until later in childhood, such as eggs and nuts.
  • Different methods of preparing foods. For example, roasting peanuts increases allergenicity while boiling reduces them.
  • Vit D deficiency increases the risk of developing allergies, according to several studies.
  • Allergies may develop after exposure to allergens.
  • Altered gut bacterial species due to low-fibre diets and antibiotic use.
