“…Incorporating WPH into infant formula is particularly beneficial for preventing and managing allergic reactions, which may potentially reduce healthcare costs for consumers and governments, as evidenced by statistical data from Botteman et al. (2018). This aspect emphasizes the health and economic benefits of adding WPH into infant nutrition.…”

“…This is reflected in more than 4000 original research papers focused on gut microbiota and allergy prevention. The gastrointestinal tract plays an important immune function in developing either effector or tolerant responses by balancing the activities of Th1 and Th2 cells as well as regulating Th17 and T regulatory cells in the lamina propria (11). It is thought, that a reduced gut microbial diversity and dysbiosis may affect this balance and lead to a Th2-skewed immune response, with enhanced IgE responses to food antigens, and/or a defect in mounting proper regulatory T-cell responses (2).…”

“…Atopic dermatitis, often linked to food allergies such as CMA, is the most common allergic manifestation in infants and young children, and therefore its occurrence is often the main criterion for evaluation of efficacy of clinical trials aimed at reducing allergy burden in infancy (3). Nutritional intervention soon after birth with a partially hydrolyzed formula (pHF) instead of formula with intact protein was reported to reduce the cumulative J o u r n a l P r e -p r o o f 6 incidence of atopic dermatitis up to 16 years of age and, as a consequence, also to reduce health care costs for healthy, high-risk, non-exclusively breastfed infants (11). In keeping with this, pHFs have been positioned by infant formula manufacturers for the prevention of allergic disease for both primary and secondary prevention (5) in the absence of breastfeeding or in addition to breastfeeding if needed in infants at risk of allergy.…”

“…Over two-thirds of these deaths are often related to inappropriate feeding practices, happen in the first year of life (12,13,14). EDHS 2016 declared as only 60% of children are introduced to solid foods at 6-8 months, 11% of the infants begin foods before 6 months of age (11).…”
