%X The prevalence of allergic diseases in infants, whose parents and siblings do not have allergy, is approximately 10 % and reaches 20¨C30 % in those with an allergic first-degree relative. Intestinal microbiota may modulate immunologic and inflammatory systemic responses and, thus, influence development of sensitization and allergy. Prebiotics ¨C non-digestible oligosaccharides that stimulate growth of probiotic bacteria ¨C have been reported to modulate immune responses and their supplementation has been proposed as a preventive intervention
