Is the gut microbiome the key to allergic disease?
Could we cure allergies by taking probiotics or transplanting the gut microbiome from a healthy person? What does all this mean for eczema/allergy prevention? To find out, join our conversation with Dr. Rima Rachid, allergist and immunologist at Harvard Children’s Hospital, and Meenal Lele, eczema mom and author of Baby and the Biome. We discuss the promising trials with fecal microbiota transplants for food allergic children as well as the best probiotic to take for eczema and when it’s important to take it.
