Could grocery store fiber help kids overcome peanut allergy?

NCT ID NCT05138757

Summary

This study tested whether adding a common dietary fiber supplement to standard peanut allergy treatment helps children better tolerate small amounts of peanut. Researchers enrolled 20 children aged 4-17 to see if the fiber reduced treatment side effects and improved outcomes by potentially changing gut bacteria. The goal was to help more children safely eat the equivalent of about 3-4 peanuts after completing their allergy therapy.
