Abstract

A fundamental means of allergic disease prevention, via the use of functional food factors, is desirable. A number of studies on the role of functional food factors in preventing allergic diseases have been reported. In this review, the preventive effects of polyphenols, carotenoids, polysaccharides, and non-digestible oligosaccharides on allergic diseases are discussed.

Keywords: Allergic diseases, carotenoids, non-digestible oligosaccharides, polyphenols, polysaccharides.
