Some companies exist that will send you a packet of food weekly with various allergens mixed in. The advice in the last 3-7 years has been reversed. 20 years ago they started telling parents not to give their kids any allergens until age 3. Allergies like peanuts which in the 1980s which were so low as to be questionable, skyrocketed in the early 2000s to almost 1% of all kids and peanut butter was banned from a lot of schools. The messaging has done a 180 now and they recommend introducing allergens as early as 5 months, and usually before 1 year. My personal experience is that no children in our daycare have any allergies so from my very small sample, seems to be working. Other parents I've talked to seem to be having similar experiences.
