Parents who clean dummies with sprays and wipes could increase the chances of their child developing food allergies, researchers say.  The findings were released by Barwon Health, a health care provider in Geelong, south-west of Melbourne, last Tuesday following a study of 787 infants from birth to the age of one. Scientists from the Barwon Infant Study found that six-month-old babies who were given dummies sterilised with chemical-based cleaning agents were four times more likely to develop food allergies by their first birthday. Chemical-based sanitisers are often sold as dummy cleaners and wipes.  Parents who clean dummies with sprays and wipes could increase their child s chance of developing food allergies (stock image)
