Abstract
The literature in relation to the development of atopic and allergic disorders has been reviewed, in order to assess the claim that prolonged and exclusive breast feeding protects against the development of such disorders. The data in the literature show little consistent evidence to identify any protective association between breast feeding and either eczema, wheezing/asthma or other types of atopy or allergic response.
