The prevalence of allergic diseases is increasing worldwide, which seriously affects the health and quality of life of patients.

This article reviews the research and application status of probiotics in children with food allergy, atopic dermatitis, asthma and allergic rhinitis in recent years, and provides reference for clinicians.
