Abstract [en]

Consumption of acidic fruit pouches in infancy may damage the epithelial barrier in the gastrointestinal tract and is suggested to increase allergy risk. We aimed to explore if a high fruit pouch consumption is associated with a higher incidence of early allergic manifestations. We included 2959 parent–child dyads from the Swedish prospective, population-based NorthPop birth cohort study with parentally reported data on frequency of fruit pouch consumption at 9 months of age, as well as parentally reported eczema, wheeze, physician-diagnosed asthma, and food allergy in the first 18 months of life. Immunoglobulin E levels (IgE) in serum (n = 1792), as response to a food mix and an inhalant mix, were determined at age 18 months. Compared with no consumption, daily consumption of one or more pouches at 9 months of age was associated with inhalant sensitization (odds ratio (OR) 2.27, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06–4.87, n = 1792) but did not remain significant in the multivariable adjusted model (aOR 2.08, 95% CI 0.95–4.53, n = 1679). There were no associations between fruit pouch consumption and allergic manifestations at this young age. This study suggests that fruit pouch consumption is not associated with allergic phenotypes or IgE sensitization in early childhood.
