Scientists are testing a radical new treatment for nut allergies: fecal transplants. Researchers at Boston Children’s Hospital are using capsules packed with beneficial gut bacteria from non-allergic donors to help retrain the immune system. In a small trial, 3 out of 10 participants showed improved peanut tolerance after just one dose. A follow-up study with antibiotics still yielded promising results—3 out of 5 saw better tolerance. This approach aims to restore natural oral tolerance, offering hope for lasting relief from the daily stress of food allergies.
