sesame seeds are a fast growing allergy, and seeds do have a link to nuts.
In the fact that some unlucky people have both peanut/tree nut and sesame allergies.
( sesame is a rather static type of seed, falling of all those loaves of bread in the supermarket and getting stuck in your shoes...............can be a complete pain that way)
however, would only avoid if no signs of atopic disease, and none in family.
I am sure that in five years time this advice will change, as there is currently no prove that avoidance is reducing allergies,
and since that advice has been followed the rate of allergies has risen dramatically.
Currently no firm proof of avoidance or giving a food is proved in a study to cause or prevent food allergy occuring. ( sorry poor sentance here -kids fighting)
if your infant is not itchy , scratchy or wheezy and is bonny, healthy and fit, just relax and go with your instincts.
I have one allergic child and three without allergies. For youngest child born after allergic one,we avoided nuts/sesame until three.
She has v mild ezcema and incidents of hives with certain shampoos and creams etc.
No other signs of a overly allergic person.
at 10yrs no food allergies at all.
