Delayed egg introduction beyond infancy and increased egg allergy risk in childhood

Egg is a major food allergen in childhood. Recent studies suggest that early introduction of allergenic foods can decrease the risk of developing egg allergy. The impact of early egg introduction in the general population is unclear. We examined associations between age of infant egg introduction and childhood egg allergy outcomes in a general population.
