Default Fermented milk 'cuts allergies'

Kefir is a fermented milk drink made from live bacteria cultures which is credited with having health benefits in parts of eastern Europe.

Research published by the Society of Chemical Industry reports kefir contains bacteria which could help reduce allergic responses.

Experts warned that much more testing needed to be done on the product.

Between 5% and 8% of children under the age of three are at risk from food allergies.
Wow! I'll have to try some kefir.

Oh wait... it just sunk in, it's the IgE type of allergy.
