The study published by Pediatrics.org found that parents that suck on their infant’s pacifier may reduce the risk of allergy development.  They say this is possibly because of immune stimulation by microbes transferred to the infant from the parent’s saliva.

So the next time that binky hits the floor wipe off the dirt and put it in your mouth before handing it back to your kid!  It will help them to grow stronger!
