Fat reduce allergic reactions

 
Who says fat only makes fat and cholesterol increase. Indeed, many people reduce fat intake to lose weight and look slim. In fact, fat also has benefits. Based on research at the University Eidenburgh, Scotland, fat may serve to reduce the severity of allergies. The conclusion was obtained after the researchers studied the effects of a high-fat diet in normal weight mice. Experts at the University of Edinburgh suspect, a diet rich in fats weakens the body's response to allergens (substances causing allergy). However, they also warned, although it can reduce the severity of allergic reactions, high-fat diet can disrupt the body's immune system. "If people consume foods high in fat before become obese, they may more often experience allergy symptoms. However, it could also indicate that the immune system is not working properly. Further research is needed to confirm it," said Dr. Annick de Vries, chairman of the study team , as reported by the journal Clinical and Experimental Allergy. He added that the research was trying to see the effect of fat on the outside of the effects of obesity. "We still do not advocate the consumption of high-fat diet because of the risk of obesity and other health risks. Including heart disease and diabetes," he explained.
