How? Where did they go? What caused it to spike in the first place?

Evidence shows that early exposure to potential allergies reduces the likelihood of getting that allergy. Since we've know this doctors have recommended early exposure to allergens, instead of avoiding them. Now that we no longer avoid peanuts before adolescence, the allergy is receding.

Changed, in to "before", iirc this impact persists a little past infancy, but yes not into the teens, I just was not thinking about my words.
