AB CLINICAL  SCENARIODoes  Soy  Milk  (or  Soy  Formula)  Increase  the  Risk  of  Developing  Peanut  Allergy  in  Children?You  are  a  general  practitioner  examining  a  29-year-old  patient  who  is  8  months  pregnant  with  her  second  child.  Her  first  child,  who  is  now  3  years  old,  had  an  intolerance  to  cow's  milk  as  an  infant.  He  was  switched  to  soy  formula  and  then  soy  milk,  which  he  subsequently  tolerated  well.  At  2  years  of  age,  cow's  milk  was  reintroduced  without  any  problems,  and  he  has  been  receiving  cow's  milk  since.  The  mother  was  planning  to  start  feeding  her  next  child  soy  formula  at  birth  but  heard  from  a  neighbor  that  it  can  increase  the  risk  of  peanut  allergy  in  her  child—a  potentially  serious  and  lifelong  problem.  She  asks  for  your  advice  on  the  topic.  Because  you  are  not  familiar  with  this  issue,  you  inform  the  patient  that  you  will  examine  the  evidence  and  discuss  your  findings  with  her  when  she  returns  for  her  next  prenatal  visit  in  1  week.
