Mom and Dad sent me this article from the NYTimes about how our bodies are huge micro biomes and it mentions how children develop their immune systems and when they are given lots of antibiotics at a young age it can lead to later cases of asthma and allergies. I had lots of ear infections when I was 7 months old which meant lots of antibiotics back in the late 80s, and today I have asthma and lots of allergies! Makes sense because genetics can't be an answer (no one else in my family has allergies).
