Who is at risk?
A major risk factor is undoubtedly genetic predisposition. If both parents have allergies, the risk of allergies in children is over 30%; if only one parent is affected, the risk is still 20%.
However, it's important to note that not everyone who is genetically predisposed will necessarily develop allergies.
Conversely, approximately 15% of children without a genetic predisposition still develop allergies.
The reason for this:
The development of allergic diseases is influenced not only by genetics but also by lifestyle and environment. Why are allergies increasing in children? The reasons are not officially clarified yet.
However, it is evident that allergies are also on the rise in developed countries with a high standard of living. This is largely attributed to excessive hygiene measures surrounding children and the frequent use of disinfectants.
It is worth considering that even small amounts of allergens can trigger allergic reactions such as rashes, diarrhea, or swelling in infants.
Now, think about the multitude of chemical compounds present in your makeup.
Every interaction with your child can also involve contact with your cosmetics.
