  1. Step 1: Shift the balance of bacteria back to a healthier status that supports the immune system based upon our gastrointestinal tract naturally playing host to a variety of bacteria which may be off balance.

    This can help your gastrointestinal system which may have decreased levels of such bacteria often killed by antibiotics or off balance for various reasons, such as poor nutrition. ,,, Consuming several different kinds from time to time may help maintain their balance. ,, Use it rather than milk in cereal.

    Add fresh fruit.

    Try a little swirl of honey, preserves, jelly, etc. not refined sugars.

    Substitute unsweetened natural yogurt for sour cream such as for baked potatoes. , Seasonal allergy sufferers in the study consumed either a probiotic-fortified dairy drink or a placebo drink for 5 months.

    And at the end of the study, those who had knocked back the L. casei drinks showed lower levels of immune substances that contribute to allergies. "By the age of 2 years, 35% of children in a study have developed allergic eczema, a condition in which the skin becomes irritated, red and itchy.

    But children who had received probiotics were half as likely to develop the skin condition.

    This cut in eczema risk is the most spectacular, single result to come out of studies on preventing allergic disease.

    Exactly why friendly gut bacteria might protect against allergies is unclear, but the effect may be an extension of the hygiene hypothesis.

    This hypothesis holds that the worldwide growth in allergic disease is in part due to our increasingly sterile surroundings.

    When babies are exposed to germs early on, some experts suggest, their immune systems are steered toward infection-fighting mode
    -- and away from the tendency to overreact to normally benign substances.

    Support for this idea comes from studies showing that infants who have more colds and other infections have lower asthma rates later in life.

    The results of this study suggest that intestine-dwelling bacteria may also play an important role in pushing the immune system away from allergic reactions.,,

  9. Step 9: including to balance immune substances involved in seasonal allergies and do absolutely help with digestion.

  10. Step 10: Use natural yogurt with active "good bacteria" in many ways in sufficient numbers to get benefits: Top yogurt with cereal for breakfast.

  11. Step 11: Read about fewer sniffles and "ah-choos" as people who suffer from allergies
