According to the Philly paper, Monday I think, the latest thinking is the increase in peanut allergy in U.S. children, is because Doctors have been advising pregnant women to avoid peanut products and keep them away from young children. Now they think that pregnant women and young children should eat peanut products for the allergens.

They cited comparisons between countries that eat a lot of peanut products, and those that don't, in the number of children with peanut allergy.

Here is the article those "peanut heads" quoted leaving out the important facts like maybe roasting kills the aflatoxin etc.

My MIL died from aspergillosis because an oncologist diagnosed her with brain lesions and gave her radiation therapy which killed her within 24 hours. She was basically filled with a fungal infection that could have been treated. This is usually a disease caused by inhaling or being around moldy feed grains. Once the immune system is compromised for some reason it explodes and goes every where in the body.

So any drug that was in the animal when it died was also in the dog food.
