“…Food consumption frequency and preference of the elementary school students with or without rhinitis and sinusitis* Mean ± SD RS group frequently consumed bean, peanut, walnut, almond, yogurt, egg, snack, and French fries compared to those of the control group (Table 3). The results on the frequent consumption of beans in the RS group are similar to the previous report on the high intake of soybeans and isoflavones associated with a reduced prevalence of allergic rhinitis in Japanese women (Miyake Y et al 2005). The results on the frequent consumption of nuts in the RS group were also similar to the previous report on high intake of nuts associated with an increased risk of allergic rhinitis in children (Farchi S et al 2003).…”

Rhinitis and sinusitis are among the most common medical conditions in Korea, as well as Western societies. Environmental factors may influence both rhinitis and sinusitis; however, the role of dietary factors in rhinitis and sinusitis is not clear. The present study aims to compare the dietary habit, food consumption frequency, and food preference of elementary school students with or without rhinitis and sinusitis. The demand of their parents for an education program for the dietary prevention against rhinitis and sinusitis was also examined.The survey was conducted with a total of 200 subjects recruited from two elementary schools located in Gyeonggi area of Korea. The subjects consisted of 101 students with rhinitis and/or sinusitis (RS group) and 99 without rhinitis and sinusitis (control group). The students of the RS group were more likely to have habits of eating-out and street food use, to consume bean, peanut, walnut, almond, yogurt, egg, snack, and French fries frequently, and to prefer the types of foods prepared by stir-frying and deep-frying than the control group. The parents who recognized 'school nutrition teachers or food/nutrition-majored specialists' as the most appropriate educator for the dietary education program in the RS group (48.5% of their parents) were less than those in the control group (67.7% of their parents). The present study suggest that students with rhinitis and/or sinusitis may be different from those without the disease(s) in their dietary habit, frequently consumed foods, and preferred type of foods. More epidemiological, intervention, and laboratory studies are needed in order to elucidate the role of dietary factors in the development and prevention of rhinitis and sinusitis, which will have a significant implication to public health.

“…As noted by the authors, relatively little attention has been paid to soy intake in relation to respiratory or allergic diseases. [8][9][10][11] In a cross-sectional study of young adults in Australia, the consumption of soy beverage was associated with an increased prevalence of current asthma, doctor-diagnosed asthma and bronchial hyperresponsiveness. 8 In another cross-sectional study among Japanese pregnant women, dietary intakes of total soy product, soy protein, daidzein, and genistein in the fourth quartile (as compared to the first quartile), were independently associated with a reduced prevalence of allergic rhinitis, although no significant dose-response relations were observed.…”

“…Soybeans are the most common source of isoflavones in the human diet, and some epidemiologic studies have linked soy intake with beneficial effects in patients with allergic diseases [66].

“…In a recent study, Okada et al [65] examined the effects of dietary resveratrol in a mouse model of food allergy induced by oral administration of OVA with the mucosal adjuvant cholera toxin (CT). The study demonstrated that ingestion of resveratrol prevented CT-driven mucosal sensitization to OVA in mice, and decreased OVA plus CT-induced splenocytes and bone marrow derived dendritic cell costimulatory molecule expression levels by as yet undetermined mechanism.Soybeans are the most common source of isoflavones in the human diet, and some epidemiologic studies have linked soy intake with beneficial effects in patients with allergic diseases [66].

Effective primary preventions strategies aimed at reducing the onset of IgE sensitization are urgently needed as the incidence of childhood food allergy keeps increasing.Studies eliminating food allergens during pregnancy have failed to show reduction in the prevalence of long-term IgE-mediated food allergy in children, and recent data provides direct evidence supporting early oral exposure as a means of preventing development of allergy. Since effects on early immune programming may be more significant in utero, there has been increasing interest in the potential protective role of maternal dietary modifications on the development of FA in offspring.In this article, we will review the current knowledge from animal and clinical studies on the role of maternal dietary modification, mainly through supplementation with vitamins, polyunsaturated fatty acids and probiotics, for the prevention of food allergy. Besides, the potential role of some promising FA treatments like Chinese herbal formula FAHF-2 for the primary prevention of FA in offspring will be reviewed. be due to uncontrolled environmental factors, timing of introduction to PN and different study protocols and populations, as well as undefined co-factors in maternal diet such as microbes [18][19][20]. In addition, retrospective maternal recall of dietary intake during pregnancy (and or lactation), sometimes months or years later, may contain recall bias. At present, the standard practice for PNA and other food allergies is strict allergen avoidance. There is no clinical study reporting whether peanut allergic mother consumption of controlled low doses of peanut that do not trigger clinical reactions would prevent offspring peanut or other food allergies. The Potential of Maternal Dietary Modification for Prevention of Food AllergyOlga Maternal allergenic food consumption for preventing food allergy in offspring: Animal studiesIn recent years several studies in animal models have provided direct evidence supporting early oral exposure as a means of preventing development of allergy.Melkild et al. [21] showed that intraperitoneal immunization of naïve mice with ovalbumin and adjuvant (Al(OH) 3 ) during pregnancy and lactation significantly reduced the specific IgE response and increased the IgG2a response in their offspring. Moreover, the IgE suppression was stronger if maternal allergen exposure was during early pregnancy (3 days into pregnancy) compared to a late pregnancy exposure (17 days into pregnancy). The same group reported that the protective effect of maternal immunization was affected by the type of adjuvant used: while offspring from mothers immunized with OVA and either pertussis toxin (PT) or Al(OH) 3 showed reduced levels of OVA-specific IgE and IgG1 and increased levels of OVA-specific IgG2a antibodies, maternal immunization with CpG and OVA did not affect antibody responses in offspring [22]. However, whether this effect is dependent on the specific adjuvant and/or the route of exposure employed has to be further investigated. Le...
