The interest of consumers for diverse fermented foods has increased in recent years thanks to the positive perception of their impact on consumer health considered as beneficial. Hence, there is an evident need for search of novel ways and for new food preservation agents of natural origins. In this aspect, lactic acid bacteria are very good candidates. It should be highlighted also that the onset of food allergies is rising significantly in recent years. The reduction of the immunoreactivity of food proteins could be achieved thanks to preprandial proteolysis occurring in fermented dairy (and other food) systems changing the allergen presentation or cleaving the allergenic protein epitopes, and produce hypoallergenic products.
