Abstract
Food allergic disorders are contributing a serious health complication in the developed as well as developing world. The paediatric age group is more prone to allergic diseases as compared to other age group and show more symptoms of these disorders. Besides the dictionary of pharmaceuticals for curing allergic symptoms, there is also a world of microorganism that emerges as a future therapeutic weapon against various allergic diseases. Several studies suggest the role of prebiotics and probiotics in curing allergic diseases. We have reviewed the published reports and discussed mainly the prospective uses in the field of food allergic diseases, with reference to the implication of the natural immune system as regulator of the development of abnormal responses to ingested food antigens and its possible impact on future market of health.
