Infant and childhood food allergy has now been linked to a mix of environmental and genetic factors that must coexist to trigger the allergy, reports a new study. Those factors include genetics that alter skin absorbency, use of infant cleansing wipes that leave soap on the skin, skin exposure to allergens in dust and skin exposure to food from those providing infant care. The good news is factors leading to food allergy can be modified in the home environment.

In case you were looking for a solution to the soggy soap bar I found a solution in a soap holder/dish/thing. It's basically just a disc of plastic with nipple shaped protrusions all over the surface and a few holes in the disc. It lifts the soap and lets the water drain beneath it.
