In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if a multi-component environmental package (MEP) can prevent food allergies among infants at risk of developing food allergies in early life. Researchers will compare the multi-component environmental package to regular care to see if the MEP works to prevent food allergies. Participants will: * Be assigned to the multi-component environmental package or regular care once their baby is born * Complete a weekly diary * Attend in-office visits at 4 and 12 months of age * Complete web-based questionnaires at 4, 6, 9 and 12 months of age

Inability to adhere to the study procedures, e.g. severe maternal conditions (e.g. eclampsia, life-threatening conditions requiring intensive care admission) or neonatal skin conditions that require specific care practices. 3. Ongoing participation in another interventional study (e.g. trials involving skin care with topical creams, medication or interventions related to allergy prevention) that may interfere with the current study. 4. No access to phone, internet, or email (requirements to contact participant/guardian). 5. Planning to move out of the province within 12 months of study enrollment.
