Journal Title: Food Science & Nutrition Technology - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Food allergy is an immune illness to dietary proteins, with symptoms extending from mild gastrointestinal symptoms to critical anaphylactic shock. Probiotic bacteria may advance endogenous barrier systems in patients with food allergy, and by relieving intestinal inflammation, may perform as a useful tool in the prevention and management of food allergy. Recently, it was reported that using probiotics in the treatment and prevention of food allergy and other allergic diseases show some effects. Generally, the effect is dependent on the strains used, length and way of the treatment. In the allergy treatments, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lb. reuteri, Lb. acidophilus, Bifidobacterium breve and Bf. Lactis are used typically.
