The Healthcare Stage I Episode 3 I Insights from the COMEET Study with Dr. Idit Lachover Roth

This Episode is dedicated to a conversation with Dr. Idit Lachover-Roth, the principal investigator of the COMEET study- a prospective clinical study conducted in Israel in more than 2000 infants. The primary focus of this study was to explore if early exposure to cow's milk formula (CMF) influences the likelihood of developing IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy (CMA) in infants. The results were revealing: infants who consistently consumed CMF from birth showed a significantly reduced incidence of IgE-mediated CMA compared to those who had only occasional CMF exposure. These findings underscore the importance of both the timing and regularity of CMF exposure in safeguarding infants against IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy. This critical insight may offer a preventative approach to minimize the risk of cow's milk allergy in infants fed with cow milk formula.
