I don’t remember the source that told me years ago that peanut allergies are caused by a reaction to all the chemicals, fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides put on the soil and leaves of these legumes. Apparently cotton was grown for a while in farmers fields, which is heavily treated with chemicals. When the soil got degraded farmers rotated crops to peanuts that would uptake the bio- accumulated chemicals. Made sense about the crop rotation as legume growing brings more nitrogen into the soil that cotton growing depletes. Makes even more sense that we should all have an allergic reaction, (but many don’t) and acknowledge poorer health as a result of toxins put in soil and on food, yet the governments whether republican or Democrat consistently avoid this being an effect we should expect. The plentiful food grown is only possible by putting poison on it. we can’t stop using poisons now without a huge reduction in agriculture output and population. For those that can consume certified organic food this reduces risks, but most people aren’t able to choose this option.
I'm surprised he didn't jump to the obvious conclusion that .6% of the children were exposed to peanuts in early childhood and simply died, reducing the population of children with peanut allergies a mere .9% of children.
When most kids get vaccinated, it's easy to blame everything and anything that happens on the vaccines. Same goes for fluoridation, talcum powder, pasteurized milk ... the list is endless. People with no understanding of statistics are easy to fool with the sort of nonsense that RFKJr spouts.
I *developed* latex sensitivity in my 20s. Suddenly allergic to my own shoes and sneakers -which at the time used rubber cement in their construction- and other latex products that I won't go into. (Ouch.)
Exposure under certain conditions is key, but I don't think science has figured out what those conditions are. Double exposure to antigen and an adjuvant could be one explanation. (Check out the Wikipedia page for "immunologic adjuvant".)
So some asshole was out there putting aluminum adjuvant in all the ragweed, goldenrod, dog and cat hair, dust, and mold in my neighborhood when I was a kid.
" “We don’t have the science to say this is an effect or not "... Do we have ANY science? Anymore? That says anything? I though he got rid of all the pesky scientists.
A kid's life is not over because of a peanut allergy. Sunflower butter tastes almost exactly thecame, comes in both smooth and crunchy (the crunchy contains whole seeds), and costs less than any tree-nut butter.
I'm so sorry. I'm allergic to wheat and soy myself and peanuts. I hope you and she and the baby are doing well. It's probably small consolation to know that peanut butter tastes much like sunflower butter, and might be a possible substitute.
Her allergies would not surprise any of the allergists I have seen, who consider overexposure to a food (or a mold or a pollen or whatever) a factor in allergies developing.
Thanks. Grand baby is doing great. They've started him on Bamba, a Israeli peanut snack to introduce peanuts. I don't think they're going to add sesame or sunflower anytime soon.
I know! I know! Let's declare the CDC an arm of the Department of War and start shipping those vaccines to Venezuela!
I'm a Genius, like my uncle and grandfather before me, so this is obviously brilliant and will save eleventy trillion dollars. And everyone will get a share.
Why do I wish that Mr. Kennedy Jr. would suddenly find himself having a serious allergic reaction to something, possibly in his nether regions, so that maybe he'd shut up for a while?
Here's his attempt at insisting aluminum in vaccines is associated with Asperger's: https://thescamdoctor.substack.com/p/how-to-cherry-pick-data-to-scam-people?r=6hgshq
At least with Kennedy’s new diet plan, I will finally have an excuse to buy deep fried butter on a stick at a county fair.
I've read many times that the official Kennedy family line is "We love our Uncle Bobby, but we totally disagree with him."
I have on very good authority that this is a lie. They actually hate and despise him. This is from my sister-in-law, who has an inside source.

Ta, Robyn. I'm allergic to nothing. I used to get contact irritant dermatitis from latex, but that went away. Early exposure is the key, apparently.

You know what else correlates ? Microplastics and highly processed foods.

Mrs Mild Jr is extremely allergic to sesame and sunflower seeds. No hummus or tahini, which makes up a good chunk of the Israeli diet.
She had to be extra careful when pregnant, because using an Epipen when pregnant is not good for the baby.

SEED OILS???!!!??? you're gonna be lucky if you don't wake up next to a whale head in your bed if you start taunting Bobby Brainworm like that!

Jimmy Carter Libelz!!!
so they are against fat people but they want people to eat a high fat diet.... hmmmm
Hey! I'm still just trying to get my foreskin sewn back on!

Alpha gal would be a good punishment. No more roadkill for Bobby!
