This study examined whether maternal and/or fetal folate status in pregnancy is associated with infant allergic outcomes.

The effect of breast-feeding on the development of allergic disease is uncertain

Elucidation of early life factors is critical to understand the development of allergic diseases, especially those manifesting in early life such as food allerg
