A new treatment could be a major breakthrough for people suffering with peanut allergies.
Researchers gave patients tiny doses of the peanut protein to allow the body to build immunity.
33 children with the allergy took as little as one/one-thousandth of a peanut.
6 months later it took more than 13 peanuts before they showed symptoms.
Researchers hope it will lead to therapy that will end food allergies in children.
