2014
Patel, A. | Shah, N.
Food allergy is an adverse immune response to some proteins in some foods. Probiotic, health promoting bacteria have gained much importance because of their innumerable benefits, particularly in the treatment of diarrhea, hypercholesterolemia, atopic dermatitis, eczema, and gastrointestinal disorders by strengthening the immune system.

The results of several reports are very promising suggesting probiotics can influence the immune system to curtail the allergic responses.
