Children who are at risk of developing allergic disease (defined as at least one parent or a brother to atopy), atopic syndrome can be prevented or delayed through exclusive breastfeeding for four months, although these benefits can not be present when the four months of age. However, a key factor may be the age at which introduce non-breast milk instead of breast-feeding duration. Atopic dermatitis, the most common form of eczema can be reduced by exclusive breastfeeding for more than 12 weeks of family history of atopy people, but when you breast-feed more than 12 weeks in combination with other foods have occurred regardless of family history of increases in eczema.
