Children have weak immune system, so they need some time t come in contact with different allergens and become resistible to their presence. Unfortunately, very often children develop over sensitivity, what is actually an allergy. Hereditary factors play a big part in developing an allergy. When both parents have allergies the chances for child to get an allergy increases to 60-80 percent. The environmental factors also have important impact to immune deficiency. Food allergies are specially sensitive, as they can go undetected for many years. It takes time to build stronger immune system and over come over sensitivity.
