Probiotics and Allergic Diseases

Summary

Many studies had demonstrated that probiotics could be applied in the prevention and adjuvant treatment for allergic diseases. In this study, we investigate the effects of Lactobacillus paracasei GMNL-133(LP), Lactobacillus fermentum GM-090 (LF), and Lactobacillus paracasei GMNL-133(LP) with Lactobacillus fermentum GM-090 (LF) combination products used for adjuvant treatment of atopic dermatitis and asthma.
