Somehow I got lucky and have no allergies. I hope everyone else gets better though...

melon said:My allergies seem less bothersome since I started eating lots of plain yogurt, not to mention it's helped clear out my sinus problems that Allegra didn't help. Lactobacillus Acidophilus bacteria, which are considered to be "friendly bacteria," are theorized to alleviate certain kinds of allergies.
anitram said:At the same time, the research shows that despite the claims that it also helps alleviate asthma, there is no data to support it, which is a little surprising, but the research doesn't seem to be hugely extensive.
I'm lactose intolerant, but taking them freeze dried instead of having yogurt sounds like a reasonable option.
